Its where the steering rack and the crosmember bolt on. The slightest movement between the two causes a clicking noise to come from the front of the car. What they did with mine was put shims between the two and its all fixed now... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It turned out to be some suspension component not being tight enough. Took darn fools 3 goes to get it fixed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
