I do have one fear about my purchase, and that I occasionally get a   small
knock when steering on full lock. What problem is this   leading to, and how
much will it cost?

Hi Sam,

I was assured that this noise (a "klunk"),when returning the steering *from*
full lock, was normal, according to my dealer...

I have a 1990 Coupe Quattro (US version), 2.3E, so I'm not a 100% whether
they are the same...

Should I be worrying?

(Hopefully...otherwise he gets it back for the 8th time!)
