Mine does this on full lock when parking.

Power steering?

Depends if it's on potholes or smooth road. If it's potholes it's likely to be the ball joint. You'll fix this with a replacement wishbone for around £40 plus labour if you don't do it yourself.

Likely to be CV joints if you're only parking, going slow on smooth tarmac.
