as title, i had the radio off and noticed when i was parking and turned the steering wheel there was a 'clunk'
not too loud but enough to know it isn't right - i only seems to be noticable at low speeds though
any ideas? its a 206 GTi 2002

onI have the same problem on my 180 mate. Was told it was the drive shaft joints knackered but when it went to the garage, they said there was nothing wrong with them. Still dont know what the noise is. Am guessing it can only be the steering rack.

can you change just the bearing or do you need to change the whole top mount?
