Weird Clonking noise when turning the wheel
Yea sounds kind of like a clonking / poping noise when i turn the wheel at low speeds and when stopped . sometimes when im coming to a stop too
sounds liek something needs lube ?

wait it does it when its stopped? check your rims and make sure they tight....i had one of mines loose and it was making a similar noise, but if it does it when its stopped has nothing to do with the drivetrain....
Do you feel the clunk on the steering column, my car does something similar intermittantly and i've been chasing it for weeks. can't find anything loose or worn in rack or susp.

Wait he said it happens when he turns. You here a goofy jiggling wheel vibration at about 35 mph.

he says smetimes when he goes slow, turns, or even when he is stopped....axle only makes noise when turning....do 1 thing 1st....turn the wheels left....check the left axle...seeif the boot is ripped, then turn it to the right and do the same....then we'll go from there...
**** leme clerfiy hehe, i feel/hear it through the steering wheel when i turn it, and when i come to a stop sometimes or when the car starts movin, mostly at low speeds.. hope that helps

lift up the car somehow (jack, lift, etc.) and check the front end.....tie rod ends, upper and lower ball joints, bushings, bearing, axles, etc....if all turns out good check the motor mounts....also make sure all wheels are tight lol...
I actually had this issue recently. It was due to the fact that some dumb *** shop (either Big-O tires, Wheel Works and/or Quality Tune up... got a timing belt done along with tires) realized that my car was too low for their lift and decided to hit it a few times w/ the car. So my front lower tie bar is scratched up and bent a bit which in turn loosened the LCA bolts. I replaced the bolts just due to possible safety issues (didn't see too much wrong with them, but $12 later I feel better) but when my LCA's were loose it clunked a lot only at low speeds audibly and though the steering rack. It still clunks very slightly, but noticeable if you're looking for it, my guess is because of the fact the LCA is only torqued down at ~40 lb/ft and due to the bend on the Tanabe bar's mounting point it doesn't sit 100% flush so when you do the high torque turns (low speed) the bar is allowed to shift slightly which is why I'm getting the noise. Ugh... Still not worth it to buy another bar though.
