Hi all,
I have been dealing with a knock in the front of my car since I have had it. I have now replaced nearly everything and the noise still persists... I have replaced the following:
strut assembly (spring, strut, and strut bearing)
upper control arm assembly (with upper ball joint)
lower control arm assembly
inner and outer tie rods
The knock is random and sounds like a bad set of struts. It does not happen if I'm in a turn though. It sounds like its coming from the foot wells, like the steering rack is loose. I have checked all the mounting bolts and they are good and tight. The chassis is a DX so there is no sway bar. I have grabbed and shook everything I could under the front of this darn thing and can't figure it out...
Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
