Thanks Lynall - don’t think it fits the symptoms, no vibrations or issues changing gears etc, just a noise. The other thing I’ve been looking into is the crankshaft pulley, don’t know if that’s a common fail on these?

On the 2.2 - I thought it was the 2.0 with the chain that was a problem

Hi everyone,
I've recently had the water pump fail on my 2003 4.4. Luckily didn't overheat and managed to get it recovered. Anyway thermostat had to be replaced as well as an aluminium pipe that runs under the inlet manifold! £477 later the car is back on the road.
I've since noticed that the...

Well another day another rangey problem!
Drove to work today no problems. Finished at 5 got to car and found the battery was flat as a pancake! Dash lights wouldn't even come on and key wouldn't turn!! Put it down initially to a usb charger I leave plugged in which remains constantly on but...

Thanks for the replies guys... Great write up holidaychicken, thanks!
Well jacked the car gave the wheel a good shake no play whatsoever... Checked the ball joints no obvious play so the knock remains a mystery!
But, got the caliber off and found the piston boot had split and had taken water...

Hey folks!
After several months of trouble free motoring I think my drivers wheel bearing is on its way out. Bit of a whir into work earlier and when I got there wheel was scorching hot. Definitely not a brake problem as I've done a full brake and caliper overhaul this year.
So suspect...

Ah ok cheers saint, that makes sense... Would that cause it to click when turning?
I take it that would be a rack out and recondition jobbie? I'll entertain most jobs but if that's the case might be one for the specialists!!

Thanks for all the support guys.
It's hard to describe buy basically the noise doesn't seem to always happen at the same point which makes me think that it my not be a particular area on the rack/pinion as I'm guessing it would always jump at the same point in the turning circle.
Had my...

Thanks for all the replies guys...
Caliper seal kit should be here by Wednesday so will get that freed up as I'm sure that's not helping...
Hopefully I'll have a good look in the daytime tomorrow and clean it all up to see what exactly is going in down there. Fingers crossed its a joint...

Is there any way if checking the cv joints?
Just had another look- what I can't get my head around is that the noise doesn't seem to happen at a particular point in the steering wheel turn. I can go through the full turn each way with no noise but If I stop the wheel straight and pull it...

For each thing I fix another 2 go!!!
Has anyone removed their steering rack before? I might just get it jacked up and double check track rod end joints before I remortgage but it does definitely sound central!

I know, headache Central!!
Saint,it is the lower uj where it enters the rack...
It does seem to be coming from there, i don't if you notice on the video but the arm seems to recoil at one point in time with the noise. Driving wise it's only noticeable at low turning speeds and I have had...
