Seems like the noise only comes on when the car is idling, at a stop sign for example. It only seems to happend after the car is warmed up, doesnt do it when I first start the car. Any clues? Seems like it is coming from the power steering area.

3 foot plus length of fuel hose, held to your ear-
move it around until you source the noise- ancient greasemonkey trick!!

PS- don't let the end of the hose get sucked up by the fan belt! Or loose clothes, long hair, neck ties, etc- a little public service announcement there...
