Default Clunking from front

Hi Guys

I got an 05 STi. Only mod so far is a set of Group 4's.

I've noticed that if I have the DCCD set to full rear bias (or even second notch full rear - if that makes sense) and lock the steering whilst trying to move forward or backwards slowly I get this farked clunking noise. Feels like something is gonna drop out underneath. I think it's coming from the fronts.

If the DCCD is set to auto i got no problems.

Anyone else experienced this? Not sure if it's because of the Group 4's or not cause I didn't notice it till after I got them fitted.

any ideas?

I haven't got an 05 but I'm sure I read a thread on this not long ago and general consensus was this was normal in manual mode.

Could be wrong though

This is normal.

After driving an 05 STi in full rear bias, I experienced the same thing.....
