Well after 3 days of FTO ownership, the car now won't turn right without violently shuddering

Everything seems perfect when turning left but the cars only doing it when its turning to the right.

Its the same in reverse and drive and only stops when i straighten the steering wheel out.

I'm not driving it (seeing as it wont turn right) but does anyone have any ideas what the problem could be?

note: I know the car had a faulty left hand rack end replaced 18 months ago.

Does it click or clunk when doing so? Sounds like a shot CV joint.

Urgh.

Should this have been picked up by the RACV comprehensive check? Meaning would someone have been able to see that there was wear on the CV joint?

It was hoisted up and the steering/suspension got 100% all clear.

What would a replacement cost?
