Whenever the steering wheel is on full lock I get a right racket coming from the engine bay. Is it the PS Pump and is it normal?

(Clio 16v)

it's fine, contraction of "might" and "not" = "mightn't"

Doesn't sound particularly elegant though Razz

There are a lot of words T9 doesn't like as standard, doesn't mean they're not valid words!

T9 used to think I was trying to call people 'aunt' all the time Rolling Eyes Razz
