    Driving an 03 Focus, 1.4

    Never had an issue with it in 3yrs, but last week or so, when turning (especially left), noticing a strange creaking sound coming from front left, still turns fine, handles fine, no other issues.

    Any idea's?

    Cv joint? Is it only happening when turning left?

    Disclaimer- Not in any way mechanical myself but have had cv joints go on me and they tend to make a rattle when turning

    Yeah, just when turning left.

    IF it is the cv joint, is that a big/costly job?

    It's not too bad but prices depend on model of car. I'm sure someone with far more knowledge on the subject will be along here to advise u further. Hope that helps :)
