could be the bearings at the top of your Macpherson's Struts. Could also be one of the 6 jillion moving parts in the recirculating ball steering system (pitman arm, tie rod, etc)

they're these little furry critters that create the power in small sports cars. sometimes if your gerbil mounts are loose you can catch one with an idler arm while cornering.
