front suspension clunk.

as i was driving today i noticed a clunking sound, like metal hitting metal, coming from my passener side front wheel. it only happens during right turns and makes hte noise more often when im taking a turn faster.

i swear, if my axle is about to take another shit on me, im selling the coilovers and going with Konis and pedders

bump

i have the same problem but it olnly happens at slow speeds

I think this happens to every Cobalt out there sooner or later. My car does that sometimes too. It gets on my freaking nerves because I have no clue how to fix it or even locate it.

 

[dman090]

well that sucks it gets soo annoying cause its SO LOUD.

i took the wheel off today cause my buddy in a honda civic needed a wheel to get to discount tire cause he had a flat. and nothing in there looked messed up at all.

could it be the control arms?

 

[arman14]

i dont think is the control arms

 

[dman090]

well WTF. this is gonna piss me off so bad. i hate driving my car when it makes this noise

 

[arman14]

it may be the cv joint

 

[dman090]

i dont think its that. when my cv axle fucked up and i had to get towed, it wasnt making this noise, a bad CV axle sounds more like a grinding sound and only makes the sound in sharp turns, while this sounds like someone is beating the inside of my wheel well with a wrench

check the ca bushings.
