Suspension seems to be making a boingy noise when turning the steering when parking at low speeds. Also pulls to the left sometimes and it goes boing again it seems to correct its self. Same happens pulls to the right sometimes then goes boing and seems to correct its self. What could be the problem. I have a 3 year warrenty with the car and it has 77k on the clock and is a 51 plate.

would not pass an mot with a broken spring it sounds to me like one of the strut top bearings has collapsed or became siezed so it doesnt turn with the steering the spring just twists and then springs round.
