I have a 98 Maxima GXE. I have a noise when I turn the wheel, when turning at slow speed. I traced the noise, I think, to the steering box. After pulling the boot off the drivers side of the box, it appears that the shaft is moving quite a bit sideways(laterally) when I turn the wheel (not only end to end as it should). There is not a lot of grease on the shaft so it doesn't seem that here is a break in a seal, etc.. Older American cars had "play adjustments" in their steering boxes. Does anyone know if there may be a play adjustment on the Nissan that might solve my problem.
