Grunt (Squawk)

Grunt is a "honking" sound elicited when coming off one of the steering stops. The phenomenon may also be tactile. Grunt is a structure-borne noise (and vibration) generated at the steering valve. Grunt frequency is system dependent and in the range of 30 Hz to 200 Hz. Grunt is generally excited during parking maneuvers with a low to medium speed steering input.
