| Post subject: | Steering Binding and new noise?? |
I have been trying to work out why the steering on my Suzuki Vitara has been binding and I think it was the return to centre steering dampener. But while I was trying to find out what it was I had the front wheels off the ground and was spinning them to hear any strange noises and with the front hubs free I could hear a slight clicking noise (same noise from both sides a wee louder on the passenger side). With them Locked there is no clicking noise. Should there be a slight noise with the hubs free or no noise at all?? |

There shouldn't be any noise with the hubs locked or unlocked. Might pay to pull the hubs out and take a look, the hubs may not be completely releasing. Just undo the 6 little bolts and pull. |

Check the uni joints on the steering, one of the guys off here had a uni let go whilst doing 100km/h, not a good result but could have been a lot worse. |

That is my main worry that something will let go. I dropped the Vit off at my mates workshop today. The binding was getting bad, it would cross over the centre line on some corners before the steering would come good. |
