Hey guys,

As the title says I am recently (within the last couple of weeks) experiencing a 'clunk' from the front passenger side. It sounds kind of like a rock or something hitting a panel under the car or something. I can usually hear at low speeds when I apply the brakes, as though something is loose and moving forward and hitting into something as the car halts. I can almost replicate it everytime. I pulled the wheel off, however, and the suspension seems to be in order, nice and tight, nothing loose. I crawled under the car as well and just did a 'shake' test on different things to see if something gave way. Everything was tight as could be, though.

The car itself is driving fine that I can tell, and this noise just seems to be kind of a random thing. If someone else has experienced this problem, please let me know what you tried and/or found. Thanks!

Derek

Edit: If it makes a difference, I am running H&Rs on Illumminas, set to 4f/5r.

 

we all are experiencing some kind of clunks..in my case i have two front blown illuminas

 

Right. I wasn't sure if this was the same thing I had been reading about or not in the other, 'quasi-definitive' thread in the 5th gen forum. I seem to be experiencing it more while applying the brakes than anytime, and I really didn't see it mentioned

Sorry about the Illuminas. That's pretty hurt.

 

Exhaust banging? Shake your muffler around and listen for banging.

 

i'm thinking the axles

 

You're right. Mine clanks too cuz of the axles. But for some reason it stopped.
