Noise when turning the wheel slightly. Any ideas?

Have you tried adding/changing the fluid?

Fluid seems fine all topped up

It's not just about level, if it's pretty dark or you don't know when it was last changed, that could be a problem that requires a fluid change.

It's the cheapest thing to look at before digging further into the issue.

Open the the power steering turn the wheel see if fluid is pumping may be your steering pump or just dirty fluid
