Golf/GTI VI :: Clanking Noise When Turn Steering Wheel

I got my front two tires changed to Hankook ventus Evo v12 and i went up a size from 225/40 18 to 235/40 18.

For about 300 miles everything was normal but the last 250 miles wasnt. Every time I rotate my steering wheel, left or right, theres a loud clanking noise (after half a turn of the steering wheel). Metal on metal sound.

I dont feel like this is a result of the tire changes but it might be.

Golf IV R32 :: Clunking Noise When Turn The Steering Wheel Left And Right

I'm getting this weird sound when i turn on my car and turn the steering wheel left and right not even a full lock just left and right really quickly or slow there is this annoying clunking coming form both of the front wheels atleast thats what i think it is and it feels as something is loose but i checked most of the bolts.. Recently i changed my front wheel bearings inner cv and outer cv joints on both front wheels.. i changed my ball joints and tie rods everything was change within a 4-5months..

Also the other day as i was driving and i could only hear this 20mph and up this weird clunking and vibration in the floor.. no vibration in the steering wheel just the floor and clunking sound.. i know for a fact i need an alignment and possibly new tires.. but what would the clunking be coming form when driving or just parked in place while moving the steering wheel...

Golf IV / Jetta IV :: Popping Noise When Turn Steering Wheel While Car Parked

Ok a week ago i noticed a popping noise when i would turn my steering wheel while the car was parked. It sounded and felt like it was coming from the drivers side.

Now a week later i have a weird constant whirring/growling noise coming from the drivers side wheel area. Which only stops when I stop completely or take a right hand turn.

So I think its a wheel bearing due to the fact it stops when I turn right, but thats why im here im not totally sure.

Golf IV R32 :: Creaking Or Squeaking Noise From Front Suspension When Turn The Wheel

Quick question : I just noticed a strange "creaking" or "squeaking" coming from my front suspension when I turn the wheel back and forth - while having the car at a stand still in the driveway...

I'm assuming my Strut Mounts (bushings) and/or Strut Bearings have gone and need to be replaced? As the creaking sound really souds like it could be the rubber bushing buckling?...

I just want to be 100% sure this is my issue before ordering the parts. Need to confirm that this noise I'm hearing is bad mounts or bushings? Or is there something else I should take a look at before ordering the parts?

Golf/GTI VI :: 2015 - Steering Makes Soft Whoop Noise When Turn The Wheel

So I just got a new golf sport wagon and I want to checkabout a noise I've noticed. When I start the car and try and immediately turn the wheel (like to back out of a parking space), the steering makes a soft 'woop woop woop' noise as i turn the wheel. It quickly goes away and the rest of the drive is noise free but it is just that first time. What this could be?

Golf IV R32 :: Random Rotor Scraping Noise When Turn The Wheel To Left At Slow Speeds

So... Took my car into a tire shop (tire pros) to get a screw pulled out of my front left tire... And after they finish the job - the guy comes up to me and says "your front brakes don't have much life left." I said, "I know I'm planning to change them in the next couple of weeks"...

He then said, "well I think your sensor just went off, when I pulled the car around.." I said "okay", got in the car and drove off - no brake light what so ever.

Anyways, A few hours later when pulling my car around the corner on the way home - I noticed that I am all of the sudden getting a random scraping sound from the front-right rotor anytime I turn the well all the way to the left at slow speeds...

I'm not too worried about it - just want to make sure these guys aren't trying to sabotage my car! The only thing that kills me, is that I didn't have the sound before and no all of the sudden I do? I'm assuming they somehow slightly moved the pad, causing it to somehow squeal - I'm just not exactly sure what they did...

Golf/GTI VI :: Cannot Get The Key To Turn / Jiggling Of The Wheel Won't Work

I was replacing my front driver's side marker and had the wheel turned all the way inboard to gain access to the splash guard screws (which have to be removed on a golf to gain access to the marker lamp)

Turned the car off not thinking much about it, but now I can't get the key to turn... the typical jiggling of the wheel won't work because it was locked over (no movement) when I turned the car off. Now after trying to jiggle the wheel and turn the key, the key is now stuck in the ignition.

Golf/GTI VI :: Headlights Turn With The Steering Wheel

I was under the understanding that the headlights turn with the steering wheel. When I start the car they go through some kind of test thing but after that nothing. I am expecting them to turn when I turn the wheel or am I wrong?

Bmw :: 1992 - Noise When Turn Wheel Sharply In Either Direction

my 1992 BMW 3-series makes a horrible noise when I turn the wheel sharply in either direction. the noise however gets better as the car warms up, and after half an hour of driving has gone away. if I turn the engine off for an hour and start it up again, the noise is back. my sister think it's the steering column. my brother-in-law thinks it's the power steering pump, or some kind of really complicated switch to do with RPM that I don't understand.

Sonata NF (2006-10) :: Creek Noise When Turn The Wheel

I have a weird noise coming from both sides of my car when I turn the wheel its almost like a creek when i turn my wheel to the right and the left. My one friend who is a tech for dodge looked under the car and checked the axles and he said they looked fine so its not them. I went to the dealer last week and they told me it was my upper control arms so i got them done today when I left the dealer it sounded like it was gone. As soon as I turned home I heard it again.

My sonata has 84k on it its an 07 2.4L ....

GTI 337/20th Anniversary :: Clunk Like Noise When Turn The Wheel

I've been hearing a "clunk" like noise here & there when I turn the wheel on my GLI all the way to one side then turning it back. I've heard it when making u-turns and when reversing. It seems to be coming from somewhere on the bottom of the drivers side and it doesn't happen all the time. I've brought it to the shop twice but they can't seem to figure out what the problem is & the car won't make the noise whenever they seem to test drive it. What this might be?

Golf IV / Jetta IV :: Clunking From Left Wheel When Turn Right

I have replaced the ball joints(a year and a half ago) and put in the the ecs tuning control arms with the solid bushing. Recently, I have had a clunking sound, from the left wheel, when turning right. Kind of sounds like the ball joints when they were bad. This noise only occurs when I turn right under about 30mph. It also feels like the wheel might be doing a quick "wiggle." Do you think it is the ball joint again? Could a bad wheel bearing be doing this? I have replaced the right wheel bearing, but have not done the left one yet.

Hyundai - Elantra :: Clunking Noise When Wheel Is Turn All The Way To Either Side

I recently heard a sort of clunking noise when the wheel is turn all the way to either side, going slowly, and pressing the brake. I took the car in and the guys told me it was something call the front struts and mounts. Plus, that I needed to replace the inner tie rods (described as a joint). The cost was crazy high, at around $1300 (plus the alignment). The car is a Hyundai Elantra year 2007, with an 87,000 miles.

My question is, in the event that this is not covered by the warranty, how pressing is the issue? Obviously, any issue can become pressing if left uncheck or exacerbated my another issue. But, if the noise I hear is minor, is it going to do lasting damage to the car if not corrected in the next month?
