Hi all
My ZS EV LR Trophy is 11 months old/13,000 miles. Really happy with it mostly! Due to go back to the dealer for its 1st year service and I have a couple of things I'm noticing that I'm not happy with. Want to know if any of you guys have had same issues and what your interactions with your dealer have been like.
1. Steering column knock noise when turning sometimes. Its an audible short knock when turning the wheel, only sometimes, and more frequent at slow speeds. Is just about enough to feel it through your hands on the wheel.
I have undone and reset the adjustable steering column lever a few times but it has made no difference. I have worked on my own cars for years before this one so I know it's not suspension/ball joint/trackrod end - the noise is definitely inside the car and coming from the steering column
2. Strange intermittant 'rattle' noise from front centre of dash close to the windscreen. Possibly more likely to occur after/during using heated aircon/windscreen blower.
I thought at first it was the rubber part of the wiper blades skitting around slightly on the windscreen - it's exactly that kind of noise, but I have turned on the wipers during the rattle and the noise continues
