Hi I am new to the community. I recently replaced my front struts about a year ago. I still heard the noise coming from the front passenger side and when I took it to the dealership for an oil change they recommended replacing the lower control arms. So about two weeks ago I replaced that front lower control arms thinking the noise would go away. As you can imagine the noise is still their and I am lost as to what could be making this noise. Also the noise comes from regular driving, I hear it randomly as I am doing normal driving.

 

Take a look at the serpentine belt to see if anything is caught in there. I recently had a belt fray on me that would make intermittent noise as it disintegrated.

I would also check the half-shaft.

 

I hear a noise randomly, from the passenger side, as I am doing normal driving too.

It's cause by the Wife!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Turns out that the Passenger side strut and top plate were damaged even though they were only 2 years old.

 

The passenger strut was bad, replaced it and the top mount and now the noise is gone.
