Knocking sound

Post by InkedAlchemist »

Hey folks!

I've noticed a strange knocking sound coming from my 05 Turbo. The only time it occurs is when I'm making a hard right at a higher speed. If I gun it more.. the knocking increases. Hard to exactly pinpoint it from inside, but it sounds like it's mostly towards the right front side of the car, which kinda makes sense since it happens on right turns. Any thoughts?

Lots of variables there.....I think the first think I would check would be the axle......

Start with the easiest stuff first. Are any sway bar bushings rotted out and missing?

Also check the strut bushings and see that the struts are not loosening up or leaking.

Can you make the knocking sound by pushing up and down on the RF or LF fenders?
