Weird moan/groan when steering at very low speeds

Hey all,
On my 2001 CL-S, 45k, when I am manuvering in a parking lot for example, there is a short, groan from the front of the car whenever I turn the steering wheel.
It only seems to happen when I am just barely moving and when I turn the wheels from pointing left, to center, then just right of center.
It does not happen at speeds above 5mph or so.
Any ideas?
Thanks!
