HELP!!! My car has lasted a week & I've just resorted to parking it up :(
Took it out tonight & after a few miles a creaking noise appeared when steering. After a few more miles it gradually got louder until it became unbearable. I limped it home but thinking its best get it recovered to the garage.
I've done some searching but can't find what it could be as I've already replaced all of the suggested items. The parts I have that have done less than 2000 miles are
Top mounts
Ball joints
Arms
Coilovers
Poly mounts
All belts / fluids (still at correct level)
Bearings
Anyone got any suggestions. Only thing left I can think of is steering rack & that's rare to go on these. Can't think what else could be ok for last couple of hundred miles then deteriorate do quickly over such a short distance.
Let the fun commence (again /pan)
