Hi all. About 2 months ago we noticed the FNS tire on the other halves D1 was wearing on the outside only. I first thought it was tracking out, sent her to tire place to get it checked, and they said no all was fine, just a duff tire or going round too many roundabouts(?).
Then about a week ago she pulled up to find a large amount of oil on the wheel. I traced this back to the ball joint seal leaking a lot. Ok, i'll change that when i get time....
Today we noticed one loud knock each time when more than half lock is used turning. The knock is coming from that corner.
I first assumed the tire wear was worn bushes, as we changed all the suspension last summer. Then i figured the knackered seal could be same thing, getting worse. Now i'm wondering if I'm on the right track with the knocking sounding more like something is loose. Any ideas? Or has anyone had this before? Its a '95 300tdi. Cheers.
