MG MGF Technical - steering wheel sound

Hi.I am an owner of a new TF115.When i turn the steering wheel either left or right from the midle position, i hear a high pitched like metalic sound as a "tic".Is it normal?Have anyone of you heard something like that?thanks
max

Hi max,
welcome to the club.

I think you will hear this "tic" at any car with mechanic side indicator switch. It should be the noise of the *switch back* mechanic for the indicator while the switch is not engaged.
Just key in the indicator switch lever to one side and see what happens if you turn then.

btw, don't useless turn the steering wheel at a 'standing' car. You only stress the mechanics of the steering rack and power steering.
