Well,
Basically a few weeks ago, started getting a rather large shaking in my steering wheel when I'm turning left (not all the time mind you).
Then everything starts squeaking etc, I am totally lost as to what it could be.
Anyone has an idea?
Cvs worn out? Front alignment out? Check to make sure nothing is rubbing on the wheel?

could be that the CV is stuffed, also a warped rotor but that would present itself when braking also, could be the lower control arm bushes as well that they have chewed out and its moving quite freely and the shock is hitting the firewall because of it
Is this the car that hit a gutter at Christmas? You wanna have a good look at everything under the front end, there might be something rooted in there, could be steering linkages or anything

sounds like the power steering pump is shagged. when they stuff up and you turn they cause a shudder.

Yer, thats the car that hit a roundabout gutter at christmas - Shop I took it to said everything was fine, nothing left to repair.
It seems to come and go, but when it starts, it stays till I turn off the engine, wait a bit and turn on again
does sound more like p/s pump, but would be good to get a 2nd opinion on the frontend too
