Tonto

Just been driving and when turning at about 5mph going to pro I heard a weird noise and felt it through steering wheel. Can't really describe it but worried me.

Anyone have any idea what this could be, maybe fluid needs topped up or tyre pressure checked?

Also I thought I may have damaged a spring (drivers side) the other day when I hit a pothole but car has been fine. Hope nothing is damages as can't really afford this atm with baby only 2weeks old haha!

Could of been the power steering mate even though elec it can make a noise and send vibrations through.

you will have to jack the car up and check the springs and wheel bearing for play

@Rusty2009 is it anything to worry about then mate? I didn't notice it at all on way home. going to have a little look to see if I can see anything but more than likely be a trip to a garage to get it checked.

@tucpal is the spring and bearings easy to see and check ?

I've never worried about it but pop it into a garage for a quick look over just incase it's not.

I think I just worry to much in general about my cars as I think oh ***** here goes more money haha, will see if the garage can have a quick look tomorrow am

Tonto · 3:rd-Jun-2015, 09:14:54

Going to pop in after I've had little one to doctors

Didn't get to the garage as it was rammed with cars. But on arriving in the multi-storey car park at metro centre again it made that same feeling/noise. However I seem to think it's just whatever they have put on the floor as everyone's car wheels squeal if you turn to fast etc, as I was going slow I think it was only that. panic over!

I've had noise / vibration from worn discs too when on full lock.
Glad to hear it's nothing needing attention
