ok every time i turn my steering wheel completely to one side to make a turn...u turn for example.. i hear this horrible sound that sounds like its comming from my suspension...its sounds like something is going to snap...anyone have this problem?..i have sprints on stock struts...btw i only hear it in the front.


thanks

aside from your struts probably being blown or ready to blow, it sounds like your strut bearings are shot as well. invest in some AGX and strut bearings and replace them all.

If turning at a standstill, it's a bad strut bearing.

If when rolling, it could be a bad CV joint.


Check out www.motorvate.ca to see if your symptoms match either problem.
Also, search for "strut bearing" on the .org. This has been extensively covered.

I respectfully disagree on the blown strut theory, especially if the noise is made while turning the wheel with the car at a standstill. The bounce test is the best way to determine the wear-level of the struts.
