Update ..
Ford workshop has definitely tightened something up as the rubbing noise has now gone and the clicking/grinding sound is very much less pronounced.
This is interesting because what this tells me is that the tightening up of a few things has “more or less” fixed it … but not completely.
And Ford agree that this is the case so they have booked the car back in for a Steering Column replacement (a two day job requiring a loan car)
So my Puma is booked in for a repair in a weeks time ..
Knocking / Clunking Noise When Turning Hard Right
Hi All
i have just had my 2020 puma to Ford Dealer, for a knocking noise coming from steering rack. This is what the dealer said.
Firstly said universal steering joint needed replacing, then said no only the 3 bolts that come loose,
May help someone further down the line.
