if your observing and hearing a sound while your turning, i would suggest you change your powersteering fluid. if the steering fluid isn't Genuine Honda fluid sometime it can cause corrostion and make the powersteering fail prematurely.

sometime simply changing the steering fluid will rid of all your squeaking and grinding-

also if the PS fluid is showing signs of leakage, you should have that checked out by a local honda/acura shop.. if at some point you run out of fluid completely you can servely damage the whole power steering assembly. you dont want that to happen.

hope this helps, best regards to you my friend.
JL feedback is greatly appreciate
