hi guys,
got a knocking noise coming from o/s front wheel when turning wheel when stationary or pulling away and cornering at slowish speed.
is this the signs of a broken spring or something worse?
thanks in advance

Commmon fault, most probably. The springs are moving in the "bottom plate" of your McPherson. At the bottom end of your front springs, there should be some protective plastic, kind of a 10 cm long "stocking".
This is covered more detailed in alot of other posts here
sounds like a cv joint mate
check your gaiters haven't split open
Just had my inner done for £95 so i suppose outer would be a bit cheaper
Irmscher Insignia CDTI 130
MOD'S...Irmscher front spoiler, Irmscher mats, Irmscher door pins, Irmscher rear spoiler, Irmscher grille, Irmscher skirt & exhausts,Irmscher Roof spoiler MOD'S TO COME..Side skirts,Wheels
thats not as bad as a spring i suppose if it is the drive shaft(inner or outer)
cv gaiter as in above post is about the right price, but thats for the gaiter only, NOT the joint
there not cheap, so a decent back street garage will be your best bet, main dealer will want to take your house and kids to pay for it
