Steering Wheel rumbles

Yesterday, after MOT, when I turn my steering wheel, in parking speed, it started to rumble. Also, it would only do this when it is cold. Any clues?

Sometimes after having the front of the car lifted in the air, the steering rack can rumble at low speeds. This should clear after a short time when things have settled back down.

hi there the car must have been on a ramp for the mot. one of the checks is the wheel bearings and this means the wheels will be hanging for a while. it should clear shortly. hth

My car also had a MOT this week and the wheels vibrated the same while parking, but this has now cleared itself after a few miles.
