My 2001 2.0 hdi sx c5 is making a noise when I turn the steering left or right but its OK in a straight line,this is annoying me,it had new front callipers for the mot a few weeks back this was when the noise started,I wouldn't of though it was the callipers causing the noise.

Re: c5 steering noises
Air in the power steering possibly? Maybe jack the front off the ground and turn the steering lock to lock a few times to see if it will bleed out.
Man is, by nature, a lazy beast, he does not need twice encouraging to do nothing.
Re: c5 steering noises
The handbrake cables (or worse, the brake hoses) haven't been dressed incorrectly, and are fouling the discs?

Re: c5 steering noises
Been to garage got the car on the ramps and he said it could be CV joints,but he checked drivers side front wheel and there was a lot of play in the wheel I thought it was going to fall off! So wheel bearings have gone so its going in on Friday hopefully this is the problem.
