Knocking noise while braking at slow speeds. Help
Well I get a really bad knocking noise when I brake at slow speeds. I can't hear it or feel it when I'm on the freeway and braking, only when I am coming up to a red light. Sounds horrible, I don't really feel it in the brake pedal so I'm not sure. Is there a bushing or something I need to replace? It is coming from my front passenger side.

Front lower control arm bushing is bad. Same thing happened to me a month ago. I couldn't figure out what it was. I took the wheel off and it didn't wobble. I did the same thing the next day and it wobbled. I looked at it for a while and then I noticed it was the front LCA bushing. I put a new control arm on and everything is fine now. Somebody a couple weeks ago had the same problem, I told him to check is front LCA and that fixed his problem too. Hope this helps!

do I have to replace the whole control are or could I just replace the bushing? Also does anyone know the price to replace just the bushing or the whole control arm? Thanks
