Steering Problem

[adi v6]

Hi ppl

I have a mondeo 2.5 v6. zetec s. 2002. 51k on clock.

The problem is when turning the wheel at low speeds / parking-turning sharp corners I hear and feel A creeking noise / nocking feeling in the steering what could this be any help would be great

have you checked your springs,ball joints,cv joints? id have a look at those 1st off. when you turn the wheel when car is stationary,does it do it? or is it just when cars moving? i had a bent brake dust guard that gave me similar symptoms,so make sure nothings interfering at the wheel/discs

Thanks for the replay no not checked any thing yet as don't no we're to start. And yes it does it the not moving

You get the knocking also when turning wheel while cars not moving? Sounds like your steering pump. Have u checked its got enough fluid in steering reservoir?

Yes mate there's fluid in there I have been told it mite be the bearings in the steering Collim or the nuckle

[adi v6]

And yes mate also does it when not moving
