In my 97 if im at a complete stop and im turning to a different street, the car will make this clinking noise until i straighten out and the noise doesn't happen again. I can hear it and its somewhere in the front of the car, what can it be? Help plz

 

CV Joint. replace it or replace the entire axle sometimes it cheaper.

 

Well how hard is it to replace?

 

Anybody else have an idea?

 

A buddy of mine is on his 4th set of axles, and says its really no big deal to replace them. Best thing to do, is get them at Autozone, they will come with a lifetime warranty. Just one less thing you'll have to think about down the road.

 

But aren't whole axles really pricey?

 

^^^^no i got a brand new one with a lifetime warrenty off of ebay for like 60 bucks



its when you get into ones that are specialty made for high horsepower that can get pricy because of the material they use in them.....

 

ya u can get them pretty cheap and its not to difficult to change/do. might take some time to do tho...

 

Is the axle just one whole piece or is it made up of multiple pieces. Sorry im a noob to that stuff.

 

Hang about, I'd say its a cracked CV boot, mine was cracked and it made exactly the same clicking noises when I turned.

Try getting them replaced first and see if its fixes it, mine were only £30 to have replaced.
