You can hear the clunky, groaning noise around 8 and 11 seconds when I turn the steering wheel, making a tight u-turn in an alley way.

What can it be..? I hope it has something to do with my tires since I'm getting new ones today. The current ones are pretty bald.

Help!

quick video clip of noise

 

same here! I have this issue also. especially when i make u turn while going thru dips in the middle of drive way where theres a dip(directing the rain to the sewage etc).
"pop" sound ish, feels like theres like joint issue or something in the axle of the wheels?
Im going to ask about it when i take it in for 10k service

 

If it was a hydraulic steering system, then it could be low on oil, but this is not the case.
If the turn is full turn, it could be the bushing on the steering stop bolt. The black looking cap on this image.


But the car is new so it's unlikely.
On my Supra, I cut a 1/2" or 3/4" of 5/8 hose and plug in there. No more clunky noise on full turn.

 

It was a full turn though. I just put brand new tires on today and the noise happened again when I was turning into a parking spot at work after the new tires were installed.

 

You may want to take a look at that bolt

 

Uh would I be able to look at it without taking any parts off?

 

When I think about it, it seems to make that noise especially if I'm turning on angled pavement. Hmm, let me know what you find out!

 

Yup just turn the the wheel to the left if you need to look at the right wheel.
