funny noise diagnosis - anyone?

Funny noise #1: A rubbing groan is let out when the A/C compressor turns on. It lasts about 1 second, maybe less. I think its louder during acceleration...and I think I felt the car get held back one time (like lifting off the throttle and getting back on it). Brand new compressor was installed about 2 months ago. Sometimes the A/C goes on and doesn't make the noise at all.
Funny noise #2: As I turn the steering wheel and gritty loose groan, (maybe slight moaning too) comes from the engine bay. When I stop turning the noise stops. The steering doesn't feel any heavier or lighter than it used to. Maybe I just never noticed this noise?
Bottom line...I don't want to have to take the car in unless its urgent. For once I'd like to make it through an oil change interval without accumlating a laundry list of items.
