I have no first hand experience, but I remember reading a post a while ago about
the body shifting on the frame, making a clunking sound. This would explain why
you don't hear the sound the second turn: the body has allready shifted as far
as possible...
Check the bolts connecting the body to the frame and tighten if neccesary.
As I said, I'm not sur, but checking this can't hurt anything.

Good luck,
