whirring noise when turning steering wheel

Hi folks, just wondering has anyone experienced a slight whirring noise when turning steering wheel- also a kind of creaking noise from near your ear when moving off from stationary.

The creaking noise can come from heavy people grabbing on to the wheel as a handle whilst they exit the car. Has anyone driven your car that fits into that category?

The steering wheel is a finely tuned instrument and should not be used in a method to grab the wheel while you exit the car.
