Honda - Accord :: Hard Knocking / Clunking Noise At Front Center After Left Turn - Subframe Rusted Out

I've got a 2000 Accord. I recently started hearing and feeling a hard knocking/clunking noise at the front-center of the car during the correct after a left turn. My trustworthy mechanic told me the subframe is rusted out on the right side and that it isn't safe to drive until the subframe is replaced (he also said he's seen several of these this last year). He suggested that the cause is that the hose leading away or down from the air conditioner is too short, and leaks directly onto the subframe. There is no recall on this problem currently. I've done some Internet research and there is some buzz about this, but not as much as I was hoping for.

Suzuki - Aerio :: 2004 - Loud Popping Or Knocking Sound Coming From Front Of Car When Driving

I have an '04 Suzuki Aerio, and there is a loud popping or knocking sound coming from the front of the car when I drive it. I don't seem to hear it when the car is inert (i.e. idling or traveling in a straight at a constant speed). I hear it intermittently when I accelerate/decelerate or turn. I hear it in drive and reverse. The strange thing is that it seems to go away completely when it is raining, and then come back when it stops raining and things dry out. It has been happening for a month or two. I think it has been gradually getting a bit louder. What could cause this?

Golf IV / Jetta IV :: Popping / Knocking Noise Coming From Suspension

2001 vr6 manual... I have a popping noise that comes from my suspension. it is in the front, and it has gradually gotten worse over the last month or so. It used to happen when i back out of my drive way only, but now it happens when accelerating from a stop, quickly braking or turning at low speeds. Recently its getting worse and i can start to feel it in my steering wheel sometimes. It doesn't feel like a wheel bearing. Is it bushings? Tie rod? CV Joints? Strut Mount?

Golf/GTI VI :: Popping / Knocking Noise When Turning At Low Speeds (0 - 10mp) Only

I recently started hearing a pop/knocking noise when I'm turning at low speeds (0-10mp) only. I've already done a search but most of what I found dealt with installing new springs and/or coilovers. The thing is, I only started hearing it a day or two after I installed my rear sway bar. I've gone under a couple if times to readjust the sway and put it back on thinking I might have torqued it too tight or too loose. After I did that, the noise would go away for about a few days but then it comes back again?

Corolla / Matrix 2009-13 :: Popping / Knocking Noise From Wheel Area While Driving?

I just bought a 09 Corolla S a month ago. In the last few days I've been hearing a popping/knocking noise while I'm driving. It sounds like it is coming from one of the wheels but which one. It usually happens once I decelerate or driving at low speeds. If I brake the noise will stop. The rhythm of the noise doesn't seem to be consistent with speed I'm driving. It happens more often on bumpy roads but it still happens on smooth roads. I'm wondering what are the possible problems that are could cause this?

I don't know if this would relate to the sounds I mentioned but when I bought this car it had brake problems. It would grind pretty loud. The dealership ended up replacing new rear drums. So when I drove it home everything sounded good for about a week. The grinding noise came back and after I sprayed some brake cleaner it went away for a few days. I'm assuming thats what the dealership did to hide the noise. I went ahead and changed the front pads and that worked for a week or so...but the grinding noise is back. I was about to change my rotors this weekend when the popping/knocking sound I mentioned above started happening.

Silverado :: 1999 - Loud Popping / Clanking / Knocking Noise Comes From The Rear Of Truck While Turning

More times than not now, when making a sharp left turn and sometimes a left turn in general, a loud popping/clanking/knocking noise comes from the rear of my truck. I can feel it in the steering when it's about to do it. The steering wheel will become stiff when turning left and when I straighten up it will pull to the right (just got the truck aligned so I don't think that's a problem). Rear left tire will spin like its struggling to spin. After all that I can make a hard turn right and "pop" everything will seem to go back to normal. 1999 Silverado Z71 5.3l ....

Civic - Honda :: Knocking Sound With Every Rotation Of Left Front Wheel

Starting about 100 miles ago I began getting a knocking sound from my left front wheel, which was not very noticeable at first, but now is. There is one knock with each rotation of the wheel that can be felt a little bit through the steering wheel. I suspect either the wheel bearings or a CV joint. But one thing confuses me--when under heavy acceleration or while braking, the sound & feeling almost completely disappear. I would not have guessed to get that behaviour from either of the 2 problems I suspect. Do one of these problems usually exhibit this kind of behaviour?

Civic - Honda :: 1998 - Knocking Sound From Left Front Axle Area?

1998 Honda Civic EX, automatic transmission, 145K miles. Purchased three weeks ago.

Newly purchased used car has a knock emanating from the left front axle area. It's a rotational thumping/knocking sound that occurs about every 360 degrees of the tire rotation and only in forward and backward full-lock left turns. The car also has a small vibration/wobble in the left front. It's been narrowed down to the CV half axle outer bearing. What is puzzling is left front knocking from the outer CV joint is usually associated with full-lock right turns (and vice-versa) However, the left front knocking/thumping only happens as stated above (full-lock left turns).

Recent front end parts replaced:

1) Left front hub assembly and bearing
2) Inner and outer tie rods on both left and right sides
3) Front left caliper
4) New front brake pads on both left and right sides
5) Automatic transmission 3 x 3 drain and fill + Lubegard red

Honda - Fit :: 2007 - Knocking Noise And Rumbling

I have a 2007 Fit, and just recently started to have my car rumble, specifically the break pedal, when I break. We got new breaks about two years ago. I'm just wondering what it could be. Another thing is I was driving and some (explative) person decided to pull out in front of me when they really shouldn't have. I slammed on my brakes and had a grinding noise and feel to my car when that happened. Since then when I'm driving slow I get a knocking feeling against the foot area of my passenger seat. What could this be? It is kinda hard to look underneath the car since it is so low so we can't easily see by the wheels or Axel area.

Civic - Honda :: 2012 - Knocking Noise While Turning?

Whenever I make a sharp (think turning into driveway) turn left or right, my car makes a knocking noise. Not a clicking, but I recreated the noise by knocking 2 plastic cups together. 2012 Honda Civic LX.

Passat (B7) :: Front Suspension Popping Noise (Subframe?)

So I'm coming from the MK5, MK6, & CC/B6 Passat world. On those cars, they were notorious for having the front subframe "clunk" noise. The suframe would shift back & forth, creating a "clunk." This was VW's fix: [URL] ....

Anyways....I've noticed this about 5 times now I'm on my '13 Passat V6.....when I go to back up into a parking spot. And that's the ONLY time it's done it too.

Going from Drive, I put it into Reverse and then turn the wheel a little (NOT even all the way) and hear a "pop" or creak/clunk....definitely from the front. So my guess is that it's the subframe shifting. Only 400 miles on the car too, btw.

Santa Fe (CM - 2007-12) :: Popping Noise In Front Right Tire

I have a 2012 Santa Fe that I took in today for the first 3,000 mile oil change. Everyone that rides with me say they hear a popping noise coming from the front passenger tire? I asked them to check it out at the dealership and they say all is fine. Some one said sounded like the strut top plates were loose.

Golf IV R32 :: 2004 - Popping Noise From The Rear And Sometimes Front

I've had my car for 7 years now and it's a love / hate relationship. I probably put more money in maintaining the car than upgrades. So, I have the kw club sports, front and rear neuspeed sway bars, neuspeed front strut bar, and neuspeed control arms. I lost track of how long its been since I've been hearing this popping noise but it occurs almost every time i leave my drive way.

The drive way is not flat. It dips down then comes up to the street. When reversing two tires come of ground, the front left and back right. When that happens, something pops from the rear... Recently it has come to the point when i take a right turn, i hear a pop from the rear.(not all the time). I told my mechanic to check the sway bar bushings but apparently that not the problem. Suspension shocks and springs are fine.

Ford Excursion :: Popping Noise From Front End Periodically

A few months ago I would periodically hear a "pop" from the front end. Most of the time when doing a slow turn or backing. As I just had completed a V/B swap I focused on that. I never could find anything wrong/loose. It seemed to go away for awhile but now has returned. I put the truck back up in the air. Checked sway bar links/mounts, ball joints, shocks, and hub bearings. Still no luck.

A mechanic friend suggested bad shock. In the last two days it had really increased in frequency. This morning I was looking around as I was at work and I noticed that the steering link bar from the box to the passenger side arm was movable by hand. How much play should this have? Got a big trip planned pulling the trailer coming up very soon and I need to get this fixed fast so that its safe.

Prius Plug-in 2012-15 :: Popping Noise From Front Speaker

This is driving me insane. I get popping and static from the front right speaker in my PIPA. It happens with the radio off. I can't make any sense of it. Happens typically at 30+ MPH. I know I will go into the dealer and they won't be able to duplicate it.

I have installed the nav bypass, but I don't think that could have any affect on it. I have also had side view mirrors and illuminated door sills installed. None of these have anything to do with the audio system.

Accent MC (2006-11) :: Popping / Creaking Noise From Front Suspension

I have some noise coming from the front suspension. It is a popping/sorta creaking noise. I hear it mostly when turning, but sometimes while going straight. It is not a grinding sound, nor is it a high pitched sound. I took it to my mechanic, but they drove it and could not replicate the noise. They inspected the front end, and said everything looked fine. But I still hear the noise. The car has a little over 40k miles on it. No problems with the tires...no irregular wear, and no wandering. I looked at the front end, and didn't find anything obvious. I cannot replicate the noise just by pushing on the fenders up and down.

Ford F-150 (2004-2008) :: Popping Noise Coming From Front End

Alright, so about a month ago I was driving when I heard a terrible noise sounded like a pop can stuck between a bike tire coming from the front end. I figured this was the dreaded noise most folks hear when the 4wd system isn't getting enough vacuum.

It did this for about two days, even after replacing the IWE solenoid, then it just stopped and I haven't heard it since. Me being on the cautious side, I'm a bit worried. I haven't jacked the truck up, but I did (brace yourself) lay under it while my buddy drove slowly over, there was no unusual movement.

Question is, if I had to replace anything, what exactly would it be and how much am I looking at? My warranty will be up in about a month or so and Ford has been less than spectacular with repairs thus far so I'd like to go ahead and fix it myself
