clonk/knock noise on full lock
Hello my car is making a clonking-knock noise on full lock but it doesn't do it when driving in a full circle its just the initial knock as soon as I turn the steering on full lock I got someone to turn the steering wheel whilst I hold the coil spring and I couldn't feel any twang in it but the noise does seem to be like coming from the strut bearing on passenger side
thanks |

It happens when the car is not moving if I turn the steering wheel to full lock it will clonk then if I take it off lock then put it back on again it will clonk again

After experiencing similar symptoms, I would recommend changing the while top mount and isolator, not just the bearing.

My old car had knock/clonking noise from engine bottom area whilst setting off.
Sounds like a lump of metal hanging in the air and hitting things whilst moving. Garage said it was the CV joint wearing out.... But yours only happen stationary.... |

A good place to start, it's probably the bearing.
