Unhappy A Few problems with my 51 plate 2.5 sport.....

Ive owned the car for just over a month now...no major problems, Im Loving it best car ive owned in many ways ...drove it almost a thousand miles already but ive noticed a sound everytime i turn my wheel,

Seems like its comin from the front passenger side wheel, The sound is like somethin metal straining. a week proir to this i heard a loud bang that came from the front as i went over a small bump an since then im getting this sound.

Also another problem ive just noticed today is that i replaced my normal driving beam bulbs about 2 weeks ago an jus noticed ones already out? This cant be normal?

Can anyone please roughly explain to me what the causes to my problems may be an what i can do to resolve them.

Thanks guys....

The socket in your head light is probably bad. Our cars are known to often melt the sockets. Also make sure you are only using 55watt H1 bulbs and not the higher wattage bulbs. Check the wiring and conectors.

Hard to say what the noise in the front end could be.

You don't give enough information to say anything about your wheel. Also saying you heard a bang and it's now making noise says to me that you're not very interested in finding out what the problem is. You could have a potentially dangerous situation. Your attitude may be why you got no replies.
