It would seem it was the power steering fluid, it was crazy low

Hi All I have a noise when I start the car from cold (2006 cdti) when I turn the steering wheel. It kind of judders at the front and whirrs a bit. It has stated getting worse. When the car is warmed up that issue seems to go. Does anyone have any ideas. My first thought is pump or rack Cheers

If no one has any objections to me renewing this post I see it started a few years back. Can anyone recommend a service just got a car park dent on my front wing to pop out and maybe a couple more blemishes Cheers Scott

Yeah mine is really broke now not even a beep. Worth a try but it doesn't work all the time

How long did you bake it for

Tyres now changed, when having them checked they found that they were all warped and out of shape. Seems unsurprisingly better

Will close this has I have seen there is already a big topic going on re this

Thanks for the replies It is weird to describe it felt like if I turned even slightly too much we would totally lose traction. It felt like there was not cohesion, which you expect. Yes Warwickshire on some roads have 60 mph and dual carriageways just not around me. Anyway 60mph is fine. I...

It was whenever I hit 70 ish on the whole of the 10 mile stretch. Not been that fast off the motorway as everywhere in Warwickshire is 50 mph. It was like I was on solid tyres it felt like there was no grip left

I was on the motorway yesterday granted there was a bit of wind and raining. But my car scared the living sh17 out of me me. It literally felt like I was driving on ice. I have had stacks of cats personal and company and that is the first time I have felt that. Where would I start is that a...

Which dealership was this at?

Looks like an option I will have to take. Really didn't think of checking the tyre profile when I bought it.

So it's normal then :-)

I see many post re condensation. However today after not using my car for a week I had ice on the inside. Could this really be due to the screen being dirty. I have checked around the carpets and they don't seem damp. Any ideas ?

Might be time to invest in some nice 17's and flog the 8th Gen ones

Balls

The car I have has 8th gen wheels on them. I think they literally came straight off as the wheels are 17" with a tyre profile of 50. Am I correct in saying the profile for 17" on a 7th Gen should actually be 45? If so what issues could cause if anything. Toying with the idea of swapping them as...
