Hello,

Bought a Mazda 3 MPS recently, full lock both sides there's a moaning noise, doesn't sound particularly metallic but only happens when the car is under power. Can't replicate the noise when it's jacked up or full lock and coasting. I think it's the CV joint, anything else it could be though?

Thanks.

Could be strut bearings or wheel bearings, I suppose. I associate CV failures with clicking noises.

Could be just a regular noise from the power steering, rather than an actual issue.
