right, i reversed full lock 2day and noticed a strange and worrying noise, it sounded like knocking/tapping from under the car, a bit like when large stones hit the underside of your car...

so i went to a big car park and investigated, full lock in both directions, when i clip the throttle, the noise was aparrant, a clunking/metal snapping type noise, i think it went away when i was going a bit faster, but everytime i blipped - causing a jerk, there was a clunk....

doesnt clunk when im driving straight or taking mild corners, only sharp ones or reversing out of a car parking space..

no cv boots were loose, it was fine at pvs, or i may not have noticed, i did take a roundabout about 40mph last night, maybe that strained the parts? not sure, but does it sound like a CV joint, and how much am i looking at for the repair corsa c 1.2

not much for parts, but labour will be a few hours if you dont DIY.

Sounds like a CV
