Hi my berlingo 1.6 diesel is making a grinding noise when in full lock or when going slow. This is far worse when left turning. The van steers ok but the grinding can be quite loud from inside. The garage had a very quick look this morning but not on the ramp. He said he dosnt think it's the rubbers and mentioned could be the steering rack which I know is pricey. Any ideas as new to this forum cheers.

The bloke I bought car off has just had a quick listen and is adamant the steering rack won't be damaged. He seems to think could be the suspension bushes under bonnet. It's not knocking at all so am hoping it won't be anything to serious. Thanks for reply

Does it make the noise only when you're turning the steering wheel, or does the noise happen when the steering wheel is still and the car is moving?
