Just noticed this.When I turn my steering wheel there feels like a click when taken out of the neutral position if you know what I mean???
Its as if something is snagging the steering. I have had a quick look underneath but cant see anything to hand.
It has just passed the MOT so if it was bad it should have been caught.
Any idea's anyone?
Thanks in advance.

Have a read of a thread I made the other week...

Seems your steering rack is probably nackered. Seems like a pretty common fault now

I was talking to a mechanic and he said that the Focuses were reliable when they were new, but they aint holding upto the test of time very well

Thanks for that Bailes,I think the rack is the problem then as it does the same as the one in the vid.

Mine only recently started clicking and crunching through the steering, mainly when im braking but it's been gone for a while

Mine does it when its cold but when it warms up it's sort of OK?

No the steerings better than it's cold, as the fluid warms up it gets worse.
