Full lock 'clunk'

I've just noticed that there's a hollow 'clunk' sound as the steering hits full lock - its not loud, but noticeable (and more noticeable than on my previous cars). It may just be normal, but I'd be reassured if anyone can tell me it is!

Also, I reckon that the 2.0 JTD engine if quite a bit noisier on start up than the 2.0 HDi in my previous Picasso - which I assume is basically the same engine, but with lower power. Has anyone else got a comparison?

Cheers.

I have that clunk too (2.0JTD) - can't say though whether it's normal or not! Does sound like there's a little bit of rubber missing.

Full lock both ways or just one way?

From memory - its both ways, although slightly more noticeable when turning full left. The noise is there if I reach full lock quickly, as though the steering hits some sort of metal stop.

Hi I have the same on my 2.0 auto plus have badly wearing tyres on the front keeps losing its tracking just cost me over £200 for two new front one after only 10,000 miles.

Is this the 15" rim story?

Possibly worth talking to a dealer.

Oh and my 14month old 2.2jtd clunks as well.
