Hey guys, I've had a search but all the results don't seem that relevant to my situation.
I understand the amount of free play in the wheels, and I don't really mind if there's some.
But I'm fairly sure it's not normal to clunk/ and to be able to feel it through the wheel when turning the wheel even the smallest amounts. It's definitely not when I'm at full lock. It will happen when the wheels are straight, just a change of direction is enough for it to clunk.
I've had a quick look, and I can grab the shaft in the engine bay, and when I twist it manually by hand, there are two clunks/clangs. One that happens at the top, where it is splined into column, and has a rubber bush. And the second clunk is coming from down towards the steering box itself, but I'm unable to really see it clearly.
Can somebody with some more knowledge in the area tell me what I should be tightening or looking at.
I've got the manuals but I can't find anything in them haha
Cheers guys.
