Hi guys, ive got a 97 golf vr6 highline with 70000 miles on the clock, its started to make a knocking cluncky noise from the front of the car when i turn left or right and the road is a bit rough, it did a few times wen i first got it but it seems to have got worse an i think its causing a bit of play in the steering wheel. anyone had the same prob on theirs? an wot is the cure? any help wud b appreciated. please help as its drivin me nuts!!! btw da car is on standard suspension. pics soon .cheers

does it knock on straight lines over bumps? if it does, could be suspension top mount/shock/spring in incorrect position/anti role bar bush/link...

if it doesnt, try turning it full lock both sides, stick your head out the window and listen for clonk as wheel goes round, if it clonks in this situation could be cv joint

hope this helps

It dosent do it at all in a straight line it drives perfect and handles bumpy roads perfectly, it only does it wen i turn left or right off a give way or speed hump, also ive noticed it somtimes does it wen i stop to park, wen i select reverse an bite the clutch it does it?? im sure its nt cv joints. thanks for reply

Mine does the exact same going from reverse to farward, sometimes a clunk when the steering wheel straightens.

Ive changed both wishbones, trackrods and hub carriers and it still fookin does it, i must admit not as often but its still there.....

Im thinking top mounts and/or anit-roll bar links but jese parts soon ad up for the vr......
