Default Front wheel kick

I have noticed that when on full lock it feels as if the wheels are kicking, as if trying to centralise, is this normal for this car 2003 Volvo auto D5 V70 ?

Hi, I am not an expert by any means but I had a similar problem with my 1998 V70 and it turned out to be the steering lock stops needed greasing.

If the pas fluid is low you get similar modulation on lock - as air / fluid / air / fluid is entering the pump

Unfortunately, it is your steering rack, quite common, normal shows up at junctions, tight roundabouts etc.
