hello I bought a 2008 toyota avalon with 267,000 kms everything works on it except the steering it is very heavy and sometimes it gets stuck I tried using transtune like Scotty did in his video but it didn’t work. And also when i steer the steering wheel it doesn’t make a sound what could the problem be also the tires need to be changed
It doesn’t make ‘what’ sound?
It makes no sound as you steer

The most logical place to start: Is there fluid in the power steering pump? Are the hoses/lines connected? And so forth.
At 267K, it would not be surprising if the power steering pump needs to be replaced. It's a bit of an involved job, but certainly doable, in the hands of a competent mechanic, if a pump failure is the correct diagnosis.
