Question Too "sensitive" or worn-out steering? Please comment.

I have this little problem: when cornering tight (90 to 180 degrees of steering wheel turn) I feel every bump on the road. It feels like sort of non-absorbed shocks transferred directly to the steering wheel. There is also audible noise (rattle) comming from somewhere in the steering in the above situations. Subaru technician told me to exchange left axial joint which I did but with no result.

Have anybody experienced similar problem? Or is it normal with Imprezas?

Thanx, Ivosh

Thank you, dmnbrm. Anyone else? Everyone touches the steering wheel when cornering I suppose. Please help.
