View Full Version : Clicky Steering
..GONE..

Ever since I've fitted these coilovers.. I've been giving the car a bit of a hard time throwing her into corners and roundabouts etc.
This morning on the way to work I noticed my steering clicking.
Its not like a knocking CV or anything.. It's a dead set clicking. - I've got NFI what it could be, hence the post..
Any Ideas..?

is it a light click around 3/4 turn? i have that on mine, both ways. Always thought it had something to do with the action of the indicators where it would turn them off.
Is it a metal click? do you feel it in the wheel at all? how far into your turn does it have to be?

Not sure if it's a metal click, it happens very close to full lock.
It became very pronounced in the undercover carpark here at work.

Do you mean it clicks as you turn the steering wheel, or when the wheel is in a set position not moving? ie on lock, or as you approach fulllock turning the wheel.

So it clicks all the time now.. Meaning it may not be steering..
Could it be CVs or Brakes..?

Doesn't sound very cv like. That sounds like all it could be though. Have you checked your power steering fluid at all? Might also be your steering rack. An unlikely rack fault but a strange cv noise

CV - Boot has a tiny split in it, nothing to stress about as yet.
Power Steering Fluid - Topped up and all good!
Brakes I will check this afternoon.
