Little clunk on steering 06 rav4

[Dolly the jeep]

Hi all 1st post ,

I have just purchased my third rav4 .

I opted for the diesel T180 2006 78,000 miles 

There is a couple of th things i need a bit of advice with ,hopefully you may help ;

I have a clunk when turning the steering wheel to the left faint but recurring feels like something is worn or loose damn annoying for a car that's good in every other way ,I have just changed wheel bearing ..I was going to go down the road of replace all bits to I get to the problem then thought just ask !

Also the reversing sensors are on a constant beep ,shouldn't be much

Many thanks

The clunk is a worn steering intermediate shaft. It is a common fault, but not dangerous.

Is there a fix that can be done ?

The car has only covered just over 80k and seems tight in every way except for the little clunk on turning had it a year more of a nuisance than anything else it seems

mine does the same some people say it's a 2 part steering rack and they have gone dry seen on YouTube a video showing a guy using a syringe injecting some lube of some type
