.. went to get a Chinese there a while ago and noticing a clunk from the left front wheel when the steering wheel is turned fully to right, and also rattling from same wheel when going over bumps (both minor and speed bumps).

Had the car out a while ago getting the shopping and coal and was absolutely fine.. heard nothing of the sort.

Not much I can see with the light out there right now.

Will bring it into get it looked at Monday, but any ideas lads? From a quick Google - anything from ball joints, struts, loose bearing or at worst - a worn axle.

Just hoping it's not a pricey repair right now anyways.

Most likely ball joint. Cheap enough repair. Will need to get both replaced though.

Cheers christy.

Here's hoping it's something minor.
