On a hard left turn I get a knocking noise and vibration through the steering. Would suggest that noice and knocking occurs when the wheel turns one full revolution - any ideas, has this happened to anyone else?

It doesn't happen on the hard right turn. Looks like I'm going to jack the car up, take the wheel off and have a look! I have a feeling this might have occured after my mud bath in Berkshire - I jet washed the underside of the car last weekend and stil had heaps of mud there, there is probably a stone lodged in somewhere. 2005 Zambezi TDV6 - Gone but not forgotten

VA, your knock sounds like it could be a suspension damper creak / knock. It's difficult to tell by description alone. If it is really annoying i suggest a trip to the 'stealers'.

TB, mine only occurs in reverse on full right lock. Doesn't happen reversing to the left or at any other time... never thought anything of it, as Mrs S's Fl does exactly the same thing.

As TB says the 'knock' on full lock could well be the bump stops, a small amount of grease on them and all is fine. Vibration, not sure. Is the power steering fluid level OK? |

Funny... when I reverse in full lock it feels like I went over something. This has happened on a smooth surface and I've got down to check - nothing there. Its a feeling like you just went over a pencil...

It doesn't feel as though as it's doing any damage.... but greasing my bump stops sounds like fun!!

Ihad the ame problem, the service techs said it didn't sound serious until they changed the steering rod.
