Noise when turning steering.

Postby Halfbreed07 » April 1st, 2014, 8:58 pm

Hey fellas, my mech (Autonation) changed ball joints and greased the velocity joints in december yet when cornering I hear that characteristic "crack, crack, crack" noise, you won't hear it while the car is not rolling though, what else may be the issue
It sounds like a noob question I know but as far as I know the contributing parts are good.

that sounding like the velocity joints are bad already. If the lower ball joints are worn you would hear that squeaking noise every time you enter and exist the car and when you turn the wheel left to right is parked. What brand velocity joints you used ?.

Never changed them, will get them checked out. I'm sure I can get OEM at most places tho.

yea you'll get them in central and south for sure but I'm unsure about the prices. I changed mine velocity joints December last year with the OE chinese brand becus I didn't had much of a choice to go elsewhere but so far they holding up great.
