Why is my Vauxhall Corsa making a clunking noise when turning?

I have noticed a clunking noise coming from my Vauxhall Corsa when I am turning at low speeds. It only seems to happen when I am turning to the left. What could be the cause of this and how can I fix it?

There are a few possible reasons for this clunking noise. It could be due to worn out suspension components, such as the control arm bushings or ball joints. It could also be caused by a loose or damaged steering component, such as the tie rod ends. I recommend taking your car to a mechanic to have it inspected and repaired if necessary.

I had a similar issue with my Vauxhall Corsa and it turned out to be a faulty CV joint. This part allows the wheels to turn while still providing power to the engine. If it is damaged or worn out, it can cause clunking noises. I suggest having your CV joint checked and replaced if needed.

Another possibility is that the noise is coming from a loose or damaged engine mount. This can cause the engine to shift and make clunking noises when turning. Have your mechanic check the engine mount and replace it if needed.
