Does it sound like its coming from the wheels? Could be your bearings.



Whats it sound like?

Is it happening under load?

Certain RPM range?

Wheres it coming from?

what model is this? if its awd it could be the cv joint. also could be a broken strut, my fb had that problem when i got it.



just anything loose up there, try jacking up the right side and moving the wheel around with your hands, if its loose you should be able to find the problem

everyone always overlooks something rather simple on the suspention of any car when diaging anoise when turning. a knock noise can be as simple as the frount or rear sway bar end links that are worn or broken or how about a worn out pillow ball mount on the struts. if this is a straight up knock noise i wouldnt worry too much with wheel bearings, you would hear a wuring noise that would get louder with speed. and as far as a cv goes, again a more pronounced sound would be heare even just going straight not just turning. so for my 2 cent id check the frount and rear suspention including sway bar links and struts first before getting into axles and wheel bearings.
