Creaking noise when steering is close to full lock

[leopoldbutterstotch]

i had the same issue... fixed by VW under warranty (there was a TPI on this).
It was a while ago but i recall that they lubricated a rubber boot in the steering.

I heard it as well. 5000 km on the clock. Make sense Brycem I only heard it when it was raining the other day. Have not heard it since.

had the same problem, drive shaft was bent. could it be driving too hard around the spurs? costed $750 as VW wouldn't cover it under warranty.

Heard it off and on, mentioned it to the dealer at the first service, they must have lubed something up and fixed it.

Brycem & AAAP01 - why it make sense for this noise to be more noticeable when wet? I haven't heard the noise for a few days now, but I am quite sure I heard it previously on both rainy and sunny days.

Leopoldbutterstotch, can you please let me know which Sydney dealer you went to for this to be fixed under warranty? You wouldn't remember any details of the TPI would you?

No Idea slam. It was raining the day I heard it and it was raining hard again the other day and I did not hear it. Never heard it in the dry ever.

I have my first service on Monday so will mention it.

My L/H door(s) rattle/thump first up in the morning too.
