Under hard braking, there is a loud popping sound coming from the front passenger area. Does anyone have any ideas what it could be?

 

Bump I have the same noise. Wierd thing is it started after I changed my Inner tie rod, outer tie rod, ball joints and anti sway bar bushings.

 

bad CV joint is what it sounds like....does it click or anything when you turn or even just driving straight?

</TD></TR></TABLE>no it doesnt. The CV joints are brand new aftermarket DSS 2.9s. Brand new wheel bearings and lower ball joints

 

hmmm.....possibly at bad motor mount?? thats really the only other thing i could think of

 

I would say motor mount as well. I had the same noise and it ended up being my front motor mount.

 

i've been trying to find that same noise in my car for 2 years...

i think it might be the steering rack....everything else is 100% tight, cant find problems with the rack ,but might be something with that.

Because I have changed my inner and outer tie rods and put in polyurethane mount inserts on my driver and tranny mount (I already had changed out the mount inserts for the front and rear) and I still have the pop sound on the passenger side when braking. It isn't LOUD, but noticeable.
