Just bought a 2009 Corsa. Steering makes a noise on left side. Somebody suggested that this is a common fault on Corsa and it maybe a nut on bottom of column. Any advice best place to take it for repair please and if it is the nut how much to sort. Otherwise love the car and would prefer to sort it out rather than return to private seller.
thanks very much.

The steering column, clamp is on a universal joint which means it doesn't turn in a perfect circle. put your hand down at the bottom of the steering column with the wheel in a position of making the noise. The clamp bolt head may be fouling the deadener. you should also be able to see a scuff mark if this is the case.
