popping when making slow turns
Monday, March 06, 2006 10:00 AM
Okay i've got a popping sound typically when i turn to the right at slow speeds. I have read around on here it could be multiple things but somebody said you could spray WD40 up around the spring and spring seat, would this be good to try, and what exactly am i suppose to spray? I don't want to just take a tire off and try to guess at what i'm trying to hit lol.

does it sound more like clicking or growning??? if it is clicking I would say check you axles.

ah i went outside took both rims off and sprayed some W40 up where the spring seat and springs are it made the noise stop but i don't know for how long....so I'm thinking that possibly the springs are getting binded up who knows...now i have a dang squeak in my rear probably the rear strut mounts going out again..dang.

the bearing in your strut mounts are gone, replace teh mounts

i don't think thats it, the people i had help me put the 99 strut mounts in pretty much didn't know what they was doing i think they messed up on the order of putting the moutn together that is mostly likely the problem...the springs are getting bound up somehow...but the rear i'm sorta thinking it could be a loose exhaust hanger i'm going to check that out and also the mounts as well, thanx for the tips.

yes. i have the same problem. when i turn right it pops, and when i turn left its a slightly less severe pop.... not at higher speeds, but does occur when i hit the brakes as well... is this somthing that could be cv related? i am on stock suspention till tommarow hopefully.... trying to make sure i am good to install everything before i mess somthing up. i am going agx and prokit myself...

I will suggest be careful with the strut mounts i have found out that they are easy to kill with an aftermarket suspension setup.

It's the bearings, not the "mount".....

i figured out my problem lol, my wheel is hitting the liner of the wheel well...so i guess i might just have to buy a lower profile tire.
