There is this inferno noise coming from inside of my steering column which is very easy to hear when breaking or turning at slow speeds, as something inside of the column clearly vibrates horribly.

ITS DRIVING ME INSANE!!!!!!!!!!

PLEASE HELP!
 
I had a problem when steering,a noise and vibrations were coming to the steering.At the wokshop i was told that a device located at the 4wheel drive which gives movement and has to do with the steering and the 4wheel drive(sorry i dont know the english term!) had problems and was replaced within warranty.

Konstantinos, are you referring maybe to the "stepper motor" in the centre differential?

Cant be that, Ive had all of that done before.

Ive had this problem since before I moved from the 19 inch atheos to the 20 inch techno sports. So thats indicative of something else being wrong. Thanks though.

Only other thing I can think it could be is some bearings inside of the steering column?
 
Can you undo that change?
ie Put some smaller wheels on, preferrbly your old 19 inch atheos.
That would at least eliminate the new wheels as a cause..

Were not understanding each other, perhaps because of my less than perfect grammer.

This noise is in no way related to the tires or wheels. Trust me on this lol.
 
Had this thing on my V6. it was the thing that helps you steer.

Sorry for the delay.It is a motor as it was explained to me but i dont know if it is called stepper motor.It distributes something.It is located under the vehicule(not the engine area) at the 4wheel drive and connects the steering with the 4wheel drive.At the workshop they had ordered another device to be replaced at the gearbox(i think it is software) because the latter does not handle properly the gears in upshifting and downshifting.
