I've got a noise. Please help. - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #36835 5 posts Started by silverspyder
My car is essentially a pile of parts right now, but ever since I had my car lowered with the Eibach sportline kit, the steering wheel or something up front lets out a resounding pop when I crank the wheel over left or right.
It's louder when I'm sitting still in a parking lot and turning the wheel.
And it's less of a pop and more of a tom tom like drum sound.
check your wheel bearings, check your cv joints for any leaks,did you grease the strut bearings?

Its your springs trying to turn with the wheel then when they finally do they pop loose and turn making the noise.
