When i'm on full lock(both ways) i get a clunk sound comin from the wheels. It feels like the wheel is moving. any ideas what it could be?

was thinking lower arms or something like that

That is the symptom of your CV Joints failing.

check your CV rubber boots, usually youll find one has split somewhere losing its protective grease.

got the car on axle stands

cv look fine.

i think it might have somthing todo with the EDL.
if i slow a wheel down while the car is in gear(on axle stands) it starts making the noise and the wheel starts to skip.
the one thing now is that the engine mang light has come on.
how do i get the light off

If its only clunking on full lock, and not over bumps in a straight line, or slowing down/speeding up etc then I still think CV Joints.

Most times split boot causes it, but they can go without that.

I have a mechanic I know well, always puts the car on the ramps and has a good root round with any issues like this, its a lot easier on ramps.

Although you have to trust them!

You could try testing your engine mounts by gripping the engine at the top and trying to move it, listen for knocks.

then maybe push down on the front corners and listen, see if you can get wind of where its coming from.
