Sounds like you have morning sickness!

This was a problem that was much more common on the C900's than the 9000's. It's commonly called "morning sickness", and there's not much you can do but to replace the rack. I don't know the specific problems that cause this, but basically is sounds like your rack is worn out.
Now, I'm also having trouble with my rack. It moans all the time when the ambient temperature is above 55F. If it's 50F or colder, it works perfectly. I've been told that the 9000 power steering racks NEVER go bad, EVER. But looks like we got crappy ones. Mine has 183K miles; how about yours??
