RE: our new disco - 11/22/2005 7:19:13 PM    Nux Posts: 74 Joined: 10/5/2005 Status: offline Randy Lover, I think that I have the same noise. I hear it only when turning it to the right, especially coming out of a parking spot requiring more than one full turn of the wheel. If I turn it very slowly it doesn't make the noise. I haven't investigated this fully yet, but to me it sounds like a dry steering column bushing or something. That's not very worrying, unless your hearing something coming from under the hood. I'll let you know the fix for this when I take a closer look. (But it's cold here, and motivation is lacking). Daniel _____________________________ 99 DiscoII (in reply to Randy Lover) Post #: 5

As an auto mechanic myself,I may have a suggestion to try: Apply a little grease (wheel bearing grease) on the turn stops on each of the front spindles (steering knuckles).They should be easy to see because the road dirt will be rubbed off leaving a shiny spot,or just turn the wheels all the way and look for a point of contact.This has worked for me many times.If I understood the post correctly,this should help !!! Good Luck !!!! Ed (in reply to Randy Lover) Post #: 7
