hey i have got a question for everyone, when starting off first thing in the morning in reverseing out and turning the wheel i get a very loud clunk coming from the front end then again when i go forward turning the wheel. i have replaced about everything there from the strut mounts, struts shocks tie rods control arms everything lets say and the clunk is still there. i have had it looked at by many shops and no one can figure it out because once you lift it in the air it NEVER makes that sound.......any ideas???????

 

Have you replaced your cv axles? One of them could be bad causing the clunk you are describing.

 

x2

 

From the front end of what? have no clue what car you're talking about.

 

sorry its a 2000 honda civic ex. Yes i have replaced both cv axles twice cause i thought i got some bad ones and its hard to tell where up front it comes from

 

When they put it the air did they check the front wheels for any play (side to side or top to bottom)?

Does it happen when you turn only right? Or only left?

Could be inner or outer tie rods (I saw you replaced those)
Lower ball joints
Front sway bar bushings or endlinks

 

i did the ball joints and swaybar end links and bushings, pretty much everything i think. when you lift it in the air it wont make a sound. and there is no play in the wheels themself everything as tight as a virgin lol

 

all i know is that it is driving me crazy i wish it did it when i lift the car be alot easier, i just didnt know if anyone has had the same issue but i reverse with the wheel turned to the left then clunk then go to go straighten it out and clunk. so its both turning left and right
