| until i see it or he gets it fixed, i suggest that he doesn't turn right, pulls off really slow & brakes a mile before he needs to stop!!!!!!
and turns his stereo up. |

| trig, i didn't mean your cv gaiter but the like one around the ball joint on the end of the lower suspension arm!!! jach the car up at the front and pull on the wheel, see if you have movement in the suspension leg. if so then that is where your noise is coming from.
Otherwise check the condition of the rubber bushes that are on the other end of the lower suspension arm. |
