Knocking noise from front suspension

The HACK · 10-25-2007, 05:16 PM

Loose swaybar link or bad ball joint on the swaybar link.

So pretty much all issues relating to suspension can be resolved with a KW Coilover kit and H&R sway bars front and back.

I had a similar noise and took a torque wrench to the nuts in the engine bay that attach the strut bars to the firewall. fixed it up, no more noise so far.

I get a loud POP when i keep turning my wheel to the left until it can't no more, but it doesn't make the same noise to the right.
