Hey everyone,
Recently i had been hearing some heavy knocking from the front and clicking sounds from the right front wheel and have no clue now what it is.
At first i thought the sounds were a result of needing front end parts as ALL my parts were worn till it was the metal rubbing the bolts holding them.

I have since, changed all the parts from strut mounts to banana arms and now the heavy knocking is gone, but the clicking is still there (only while driving straight and increases in frequency as i accelerate and one loud clack when i initially apply brakes). So i imagined it was my cv joints gone bad, so i did all the tricks to test em, (full lock left and right while i reverse) and got no issues, so i assume no problems there.....

i then jacked up the right side, turned the wheel with my hands and the clicking is noticed...took out my brake pads and turned more and the sound is gone......don't wanna say warped rotors so please someone tell me what they thinking...

Thanks,
Stefan

do you hear it when you turn? could be wheel bearings? jack up the car and try to shake the tires left or right and up and down if you have play it could be that. Or it could be a bad hub, might not be that but ive had to replace my hub twice because it had play.
