Default Odd noises when turning

Hi all,
Im not a savy car guy by any means but usually I can figure things out...however this one has me this time. I recently had my tires rotated balanced and aligned and shortly afterwards my car starts to make a grinding sound when I turned left and a high pithced ringing/squealing sound when I turn right, between 5-20 mph its more defined but recently got louder between 40-65mph.....with that said i rotated the tires again and checked the disks and brakes...I didn't notice anything odd about them except that one disk appeared warped (markings on the disk) the brake pads seem alright as well. That CV boot thing seems intact on all sides so I have sort of run out of ideas....any ideas? I also checked the steering fluid and thats fine as well.....thanks for any help/suggestions! -Josh

could be the cv joints. try speeding up when you are turning. if the wheels chirp and the car jerks, it is the cv joints going.
