What kind of sound? Metal on metal? Metal on asphalt? Plastic on asphalt?

If you think it's body-roll related, someone had a thread going on this a week or so ago... (i.e. try searching )

Scraping noise... when I first saw the thread I thought..."wheel bearing" but I can't fathom that sounding like a scraping noise. Usually a failing bearing causes an f'ed up vibration...

Check your power steering fluid. See if there is enough fluid. Could be your rack and pinion leaking that's why causing noise louder and louder. Or anything that could be leaking?
