I have a 2003 SF 2.7 V6 with 85K miles. Within the past week it
started making this grinding, "chunky" clicking noise when I turn
the wheel to the left. It makes the same noise after I have turned
right when the wheel is coming back to the left but not when
initiating a right turn. I can also "feel" the noise as little
thumps with the heel of my foot on the floor boards. I’ve had regular
maintenance on it and this is the first problem in almost 4 years. I
would just pop by the dealer and find out what it is but I can’t get
there right now. Any ideas anyone?
Thanks

Don't have much for an idea, but I'd recommend getting it checked soon.
