Default Popping noise...

Every time I get in my Car and back out of parking spot, like clock work, there is a pop when I turn the wheel any amount. I would like to know what it is. I'm pretty sure it has something to do with my Steering since the pop is pretty well timed with turning my wheel. It doesn't happen if I parked backwards in a parking spot and just pull straight out. Any ideas?

I get the noise too but it's not every time and I'm unable to re-produce it at will, it just happens sometimes.

Could it be your ebrakes? When you are parked forwards are you on an incline? This could put a load on the ebrake and they are sticking and then when you move they pop free. Just a thought.

I thought it might be the E-Brake too but it happened two or three times with the steering which made me think otherwise. tomorrow I will have my buddy move the car while i sit outside it and listen
