Question Freelander TD4 2002 noisy steering rack on full lock whilst stationary

Hello all

I've just bought my 1st Freelander TD4,3 door commercial van,94k miles.

Needs a bit of a tidy inside and a few other bits of cosmetic tidying doing to it.

Did notice though whilst the engine is on, the car in neutral & stationary, if I turned the steering wheel left or right towards full lock there was a clattering/catching, as if something was rubbing against the rack as it rotated, the sound coming from under the bonnet.

However on driving the car & doing the same test there was no noise?

Anyone else experienced this??

If so what was the remedy, the last owner presumed it was a dry joint of some kind.

Thanks
