orinoco-joe Posted March 29, 2010 Share Posted March 29, 2010 On my Fiesta ST, when making a left turn, the steering 'jerks', as in it feels its shooting to the left, its fine making a right turn, and usually only occurs over 50kph, the left side of the car did hit a kerb at a bit of speed, damaged inner/outer tie rod, racking mounting bush? solutions? thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mintalkin Posted March 30, 2010 Share Posted March 30, 2010 without inspection it hard to say,if it is a consistant noise then it could be CV joint. If it only clunks once then possibly lower ball joint. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
