could be a dried up c.v joint i would further expect it to be the steering motor at fault, after experiencing it 1st hand replacement is straight forward with the right equipment but needs a dealer reprograme. any further help 07902004967

cheers for the reply,i took it to the garage & the mechanic said because there isnt any knocking when steering it jus needs sum more grease applying to the joint then tying back up!
