    Low speed *clunking* at specific intervals when turning steering wheel?

    Hi all,
    Over the last few weeks when my car (2011 Audi A5 20,000 miles) is warm (warm weather or after a good 30 mins driving)
    At very low speeds when i turn the steering wheel both left or right there is a definite clunk sound at every 1/4 of a turn or so. Not sure how to describe it. For example if i do a full turn in either direction ill hear it about 4 times. I have no idea what it is, anyone have ideas? The clunk happens at exactly the same point when i turn the wheel if that makes any sense like something is loose ? Its not particularly loud either but its definitely there.

    I will try and grab a video of it when i next hear it. Thanks.
