Steering Knocking

8th March 2010, 18:15

Ok, when my vtr is stationary and i move the steering wheel left to right pretty quickly a knocking soun seems to be coming from somewhere. Any ideas on what this knocking is? Also, if it helps, my car is lowered 40mm.

Could be the track rod end

yeh, I'd guess track rod end or the central track rod bush.

Maybe worth getting a garage to have a look at it - they should be able to diagnose it pretty quick if it is one of them

drop link? ARB Bush? Track rod end? top mount bearing

Get it up on a ramp and have a look where the play is - a garage could easily do this
