So lately my car has been on a bit of a downhill slope in terms of health and it seems like everything is needing attention.
Right now my main concern is a weird noise that's coming from the front end of my car. I don't know much about how everything works in my car so I'll just try to describe it as best I can. Problem: The noise that comes from the front of the car is like the sound of a spring being compressed. ( Imagine the sound of a squeaky bed, but slower ) It happens when I go over rolling bumps and dips in the road and sometimes even when I release the accelerator and the car steadies out. If I go to the front of the car and push down (bounce it) you can also hear it. Initial thoughts is that it is something to do with the sway bar bushings? However like I said, I know next to nothing about cars.  Some notes to take in: - The roads I drive around are terrible (pot-holed, uneven, regular roadworks - - - all due to a big earthquake) - I have superstrut suspension - CVs are on their way out Any help regarding this would be much appreciated, I will probably end up taking it to the mechanics anyway but would like to hear some view points first. Cheers, |
