suspension/ steering problems

[simon_16vpunto]

ok, ever since i had my car lowered, i have had a very slight problem with my steering- When i turn right slightly, the steering makes a funny noise (think wet tyres in a multi story car park, but not near as loud) and i could feel it a wee bit through the steering wheel. Doesnt always happen though.

Had it up on the ramps but cant see anything.

Btw, this was before i put the 17s on it as well

Any ideas what is wrong before i put it into the garage?

could be a spring not sitting in the cup correctly

thats wat people have said, and its only coming from the left side

[Steve]

jack it up take the wheel off and try to turn the spring with your hands, if you can it cant be sitting correctly

[simon_16vpunto]

iirc, it moves a wee bit

ok, had the car in the garage today getting a few things done and the boy had a look at the suspension/ steering. the spring is sitting correctly in the cup and he couldnt see anyhing wrong with any of it, however it still makes that noise and its bugging the tits off me. i have got all the wee problems ironed out with the car now and this is the last thing i have to do.

Anybody help?

[simon_16vpunto]

Think ill wait for its 1st service and get them to fix it

IS it a knocking sort of noise?

[simon_16vpunto]

no, its a rubbing sort of noise- hard to explain. Fot those of you who are going to aberdeen meet, ill let you hear what i mean

could be the disc cover thing that sits on the inner side of the disc my sporting did this wasnt a big job to fix, worth having a look at
