Default steering

hey i just want to know if this is something rong or what but when i steer mostly doing manouvers and that it tends to make a creaking sort of noise doesnt really do it on roundabouts and corners. i wasnt sure if it was just the front suspension as its been lowered 55mm and help would be great thanks

Could be the driveshaft/s have gone dry meaning you`ve got a cracked gaiter & the grease has come out.Jack the car up put the steering on full lock either side & you`ll see if the gaiter/s are split.

Best thing is to take it to some local garages for a quote,depending on how much grease has been lost & how long the previous owner left it like it will determine if you need new gaiters or new driveshafts(or both)
