Weird popping noise when my car is turned off. When I move the steering wheel around. Also vibration on that drivers side when driving and braking. Ive already had the cv joinyts on that side replaced. Because it was clicking when I turned. What could this be.

Is it only when the car is off?

 

Well thats the only time I can move the wheel around and hear it. I cant do it driving down the rode. Or when my car is on its loud so I cant hear it. I can feel it though.

 

Could be the steering box...

 

its coming from underneath the car sounds like near the cv joints or brakes

 

they may not have done the CV's right..ive heard of them going out real quick to if they were not properly installed..

 

could be your rack and pinion....check it out....

 

I dont think its the cv joints because I know what that sounds like. How much is the rack and pinion? Are they hard to fix. I hate it's so annoying.

 

well, i'm not sure if thats what it is, but i've known people to have a kind of clicking/knocking noise coming from the area down there whenever the steering is turned. I"m not so sure about that turning off the car thing...but to have a rebuilt one can cost anywhere from 200-300 dollars...i personally dont know how to DIY with that. also, if it is the rack and pinion, an alignment is needed after it is fixed/replaced.

 

why the hell are you turning the wheel when the car is off for? sounds like u fiddle with it and you probly cause the problem.

??? whats with the negativity noob? fiddling with cars is what we are all about. its called being a "tuner" let it be changing camshafts in a head to turning the steering wheel while its off...its all about FIXING problems. and if there is no problem to be fixed then we still enjoy fixing it with a lil better products anyways . if you have a problem with someone trying to fix their car, then jus save us the trouble and leave the forum. we dont need any assclowns like urself plaguing us with ur ignorance.

 

i would have to agree with you, dont come in here all 2 weeks fresh and start with ****. we are all here to learn and pass on experience and knowledge mang....
