Default Clicking Noise

I am currently experiencing some clicking noise when i turn my steering wheel.
I have only noiticed this noise whilst the car is stationary and the noise itself isnt very loud (if you have your radio on you cant hear it).

Does anyone have any idea on what the problem could be and how it is solved?


I also have a noise coming from under/behind my glove box when i put the key in the ignition and turn it (just so the glow plugs warm up, not to turn on the engine), iirc i read some where that this problem is a fuel line rattle, is this true and if so how easy it is to solve the problem?

Many thanks in advance

I had a similar noise and it was my axle shaft that needed replacement.
