Steering Knock

[Sir WIll]

Gents,

Noticed over the last couple of days a knock from the front of the car.

Seemed to happen over bumps and when turning.

Had a look at it tonight and the fault is when the steering wheel is turned. At standstill there is a level of slack in the system and if your turning the steering wheel one way or the other you hear a knock.

Its almost like there is a little slack or something has worn on the steering at some location, but it sounds to me to be close the wheel itself or the column in the car.

Steering is fine, car drives straight and ok but there is this knock when turning the wheel. Steering weight is OK and no whine on the system, fluid levels are as expected.

Sounds like its coming from in the car rather than outside but that may just be my ears!

Thoughts?
