Thumping noise when reversing out of the parking

[danonmove]

Hi everyone. My 2017 V250d MP makes a strange, if not terrifying, thumping noise from beneath when I reverse it out of the parking bay. It is a mechanical structure sound, not the rubber tyre crushing on something. It sounds like a dull axe hitting the wood or a slow skidding in the piled snow on winter ground. This happens when I turn the steering wheel to the maximum.

Then I just drove off and on. Nothing seemed to be wrong. And none of the MOTs revealed any issue to warn me.

Has anyone had a similar experience? I appreciate your advice very much.

Happy Driving!

This is normal, often depends on the surface. Happens when manoeuvring and near or at full lock. There are some explanations in other threads on here i think.
