Hi All, I have developed a knocking when turning the steering wheel. On investigation I find the knock is coming from the front nearside suspension strut., looking from the top where the upper mounting bolts are ( with bonnet open ) I can see that when I turn the steering wheel it is trying to turn the strut and it clicks back and I get a click click, click ( or Knock ).
Anyone had this problem? Is it serious? Is the strut Knackered??
Any help would be really useful.
Thanks Guys in anticipation

Sounds like the top bearing/mounting.
