Backed my car out the drive the other day, turned the wheel on to lock and drove away and heard/felt a clunk as though i'd driven over a small rock, so got out and looked and nothing there in the road. Have also noticed when steering and the car is more or less stationary i get a judder through...

Just after opinions...
Could somebody please explain the variable valve timing in the 172/182 etc. Ive noticed in mine that theres a kick at 2.5k and one at 5.5k but i believe this has nothing to do with valve timing, the 5.5k to do with coming on cam (whatever that means!!)
(I have searched for this, probably not...
