when the steering wheel is turned to the right (not on full lock i sometimes get a squealing noise it sounds near the front driver side of the car not sure if its near the wheel or not. i also get a clicking noise when the wheel is on full lock left and right. can anyone tell me if these problems could be linked in some way and what is causing it?

the clicking noise from the wheels on full lock is the outer cv joints knackered,replace as nessecary,the squealing noise sounds like like power steering belt slipping if it is doing it when turning wheel,check the belt condition and adjustment.if it is auto belt tensioner then change the belt

307 has electric pump so doubt its the power steering belt.Check fluid level in the pump.
Clicking noise probably is cv joint

This from Peugeot site confirms "paulieone" re. electric p.a.s pump and suggests a few other possible causes of squeal you could check out .
Ok im pressuming here that you have electric power steering .
I would be looking at alternator pulley! yours i believe should have free wheeling pulley and they can sieze and cause vibration / noise issues! to check it remove belt and alt pulley should spin clockwise and whilst the main shaft in the alt is spinning you should be able to hold still the outer part of the pulley , basically it should move both ways!1
Other poster agrees with possible solutions ,
You're quite right crow,electric.
agree with above checks.
i'd be thinking clutch pulley also.
