Hope someone has experience of this! Ive got ain intermitant clicking noise that sounds like it's in my steering wheel.
It only seems to happen when the cars moving and im turning either way. not when i'm stationary - or not yet anyway.
A fast clicking is the best way i can describe it, its only intermitant and whenever i try and get it on video, its never there!
Any ideas?

sorry for being thick, do i literally just have to jack the car up and look at the rubber? no removing anything?
Its not long had an MOT and nothing was mentioned.

Sounds like cv joints to me, my drivers side was clicking, so got a pair of 2nd hand driveshafts for £40 of a mate who breaks scoobs, do buy a cv joint its messy and will do ur head in, only other thing causing a click will be steering rack but I have never heard of it on a scoob, just the cv joints

Thanks. i wasnt sure if it was a bush somewhere along the steering side of things. Its just that i cant hear it when im turning when stationary.
Ill get under when the weather isnt so wet and get it booked in!

The symptoms you have described are the most obvious sign there is a cv joint problem. You may find the cv boot is damaged or that there is play in the driveshaft but you may not see/feel anything. The clicking is the first sign of a problem.

btw
j and r cv joints will supply oe spec cv joints for the scoob for £19 each

Did u pay £55 per side for what, as I said I got a complete pair of shafts for £40

I had the boots replaced not the shafts

Thanks for the info. should i do both sides at that price?

might as well, i have the same thing, clicking when turning right.
I have 2 new cv joints sat here waiting to go on.
The j&r ones include new boots too. Great price, i originally ordered them from import car parts for £99 for the pair but when they turned up they were j&r ones so i sent them back and ordered them direct from j&r for £19 each. I think Subaru wanted £300 a side IIRC.
