Hi all, my mrs has a FE2 equipped vx & the left hand side clunks when you turn the steering wheel left & right, you can also feel the clunk through the floor of the car, but there is no noise when you hit bumps in the road whilst driving along.Can anyone shed some light on this problem. Cheers.

Could be link pin bushes or top strut bearing, pretty common for these to wear out.

I found & fixed this problem today, the 2 braces coming off the chassis rail to the firewall needed tightening up. No more noises now, and it did'nt cost a cent, so a good outcome for a change.
