NOISE when turning

Post by your2slow »

Hey all. Don't know if this is the correct form for this topic but when i do sharp turns like a 90 Degree turn i hear noise's coming from the front wheels. Does anyone have this same issue? Just woundering if anyone can help me find the problem. Thanks in advanced [img]shrug.gif"%20border="0[/img]

100 bucks each side, brand new, not refurbished as long as you turn the old one in. The one you get is new not a refurbished one which someone else has turned in.<BR>and that price included 30 mins of labour to change it.<P>latez :D

Yeah, I had my cv joints replaced recently. However, they still make that nasty noise.

I don't believe those PS pumps are cheap to replace!<P>I've recently started to get a clicking noise, but it's not like the typical CV joint "clicks". This noise is similar, but it only starts AFTER I've already turned the wheel and right before I get the wheel back straight. The closer to straight it gets, the louder the clicking. It even happens on not so sharp turns or curves. Once the wheel is straight though, it doesn't happen. I've never had CV problems in my MX-3, but this problem seems different then in all my previous vehicles.<P>Does anybody know of anything that would cause these symptoms other than CV joints?<p>[ November 26, 2002: Message edited by: voltaire ]

Mine doesn't click...but i had it on the lift the other day and noticed that the left outer cv boot was split, i'm gonna replace the joint anyway, but i don't even have a clicking noise, i only hear a loud rubbing noise when i turn sharp left. There is nothing rubbing that i can see, so i hope that the joint is the problem!
