Hi
Im new to here but have a problem i could do with a little help with. When turning the steering wheel from straight ahead there is a clunk on it only happens when the engine is running (power steering in use) also the top of the nearside front strut is not tight into the top of the wing, you can move the strut sideways, i have replaced the lower wishbones and the top mount and bearing but its not cured it. i just want to get it sorted so its right again.
thanks Baz

is it a mk6 ? mine did this because the top of the struts get full of water and start to rust (shit design) and the bolt wont tighten up properly i put new bolts on top of the old ones to hold it down but ideally i think a new shock absorber is better .
