Hi all.
My D3 (06 @ 51K miles) has recently developed a slight steering knock when turning the wheel to the left. It only occurs between 12 & 11 o'clock. (No, not only at these times of day  ).
Any suggestions as to possible causes?
As always, thanks in advance.

ARB bushes worn, front lower ball joints worn, T.R.E/track rod ball joints worn
Or any combination of the above. Would start with ARB bushes as it is probably the cheapest option  My D3 Build Thread

UPDATE.
Got the car back from the garage today. The knock was actually coming from the upper section of the steering rack. First time this garage had seen this problem. Total cost to replace was just under £100.
