Knocking when turning

My 320i has just started to make a loud knocking/rubbing noise from the front when turning. It started off just when turning left but now happens all the time. Can't see the tyre hitting anything. Any ideas? [/list]

Hid problem

I've got a problem with my hid kit on my 320i. The drivers side works fine but the passenger side turns on for a few seconds and then turns off. The sidelight works fine and all the wiring is ok so don't know what's wrong with it.
Any ideas?

Changing autobox filter

Can anyone give me a quick guide on how to change to fluid/filter on a 320i autobox. Can it be done without removing box?
