Hello


I am a newbie and have had my Sedona for about a year, it is a 2003 2.9CRDi and there is a strange knocking from the front that is proving elusive.



You can only here it moving away from a junction with the wheel slightly turned. It is quite audible and at first I thought it must be a CV joint or an anti roll bar but it is not.



I can feel it slightly through the steering column at times and I wondered if these vehicles have problems with engine mounts or steering racks.



It has only done around 39000 miles and has not been hard used.



Any assistance would be greatly appreciated



Regards



Neil

I should get the engine mountings checked. I have a 2004 model and there was a slight knockimg at the front that could not be found. It became a little jerking on gear change (auto) then one day the engine dropped of its engine mountings coming to rest on the wish bones. Piggy backed home to Cheshire from Wales. When examined the engine mounting bolts had sheered off. Once repaired the knocking and jerking disappeared and hasn't returned.
