coolrado 0 Posted October 31, 2004 sounds like severely worn cv joints, dunno how long they would carry on just take it very slowly especially when turning Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bcstudent 0 Posted October 31, 2004 The twang twang part doesn't sound very CV jointy to me. I'd be looking more in the direction of front steering/suspension components, i.e. suspension top mounts, wishbone bushes and anti-roll bar bushes. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RadoAds 0 Posted October 31, 2004 Sounds more like a front coil spring to me mate, either its not sat right in the cup or one of the ends of the coils have broken so its not seated properly wont be a cv joint cos thats more like a dry grinding thud that is constant with your speed as you turn a corner normally on full lock, doesnt sound like bushes either to be honest as this wouldnt give you a twang, and the anti roll bar would only twang if it was seriously loose i.e. bolts were either about to drop out or already have done,........check the coil springs first and the top and bottom mounts :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bcstudent 0 Posted October 31, 2004 Mine used to twang when turning on full lock and it was from worn top mounts. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dr_mat 0 Posted November 1, 2004 Was just about to say.. Top mounts seized can cause this. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
