im having a problem with my front drivers side wheel, i get this wum wum wum noise also the steering is off, it will pull right when i let go of the wheel, the car front drivers wheel feels like it's dragging or it's holding back the car, and seldomly get this little jolt.

I just replaced the drivers side cv axle and this was happening prior to the replacement of the cv axle.

anyone know what this is? control arm/bushing?? bearing? tie rod end? balance & alignment?

 

I have a problem similar to this, though I am still not sure of an absolute diagnosis...
BUMP

 

i think u should try getting ur car an alignment

 

cool, ya i think so as well but would a improper alignment almost jolt your car, i get this wierd feeling in the steering wheel sometimes when going around turns it could be where it's not aligned feels like the wheel is doing something on it's own

 

ttt anyone else know what this might be?

That could have something to do with your tie rods or ball joints.

Whats the "weird" feeling?

 

I have a similar problem that i attribute to uneven tire wear.

My alignment has been out for a while pulling the car right.
Now my tires are unevenly worn and at high speeds I get
a bit of a steering wheel shake.

 

when im going around a turn or up a hill sometimes the drivers side wheel will feel like it gonna drop or come off or something it's like a little tug you feel, like the wheel moved on it's own, like drifted off or something , hard to explain but it feels like a little jolt

 

I know what you mean, it feels as if the car "shifts" underneath you, so to speak.

I would jack up the car and check your lbj, for play.

 

grab the wheel and give it a good shake. Did you go through the lbj
when repacing you axle? Is it tightend to spec?

 

im bringing it to tucker acura this afternoon, mech said where i just had the axle replaced the mechs who put it in might not of done it right, i noticed the tranny is slipping a bit, and the car sometimes won't start unless i shift into a different gear and into neutral, could be related, i'll post back the results
