Default Issue on the front wheel area!

Hi All,

It appears a few months ago, when I get in or out of the driveway, I could feel a little lose .. something on the left wheel area.

Now, once in a while, I can hear a "clang" noise and a crack"" noise.

I believe a few times I was making a U-turn and I could hear the noise but mostly it happens when I get on the driveway or bump...


Would you tell me which parts might be affected?

Thanks one more time for your help,

Max

Try the steering damper, common problem at about 30K give or take. I have a similar noise, and my damper is shot (leaking) About $45 from amazon, and two bolts to change it ............
I'll let you know if the noise disappears after i do mine ...............

The pump, regulator, solenoids, zeitronix, etc are all installed and wired up, just waiting on the y pipe for the boost connection, then we can head to the dyno !. It starts and runs , and now I have datalogging capabilities ............
Spent all day Saturday, but now it's done. Just need to find the time to fit the steering damper, and do the valve cover seals .............

Ok Dave thanks. It all depends when the y pipe arrives, as I may have a break this weekend if I don't get it by Friday. It will be a break from the car only, as if I'm not working on it I'll be tiling the porch, or some such ..................no rest for the wicked !!!..................
