Weird Sound....

[Slammed 5,000+ posts]

There is a weird sound coming from my driver side wheel area (could be the struts?)

Whenever I hit a bump, it does a weird cricket sound....

When I press on the gas it is more noticeable.

Its not the rim nor is it the axles (just changed them)

When I put up my windows the sound is very noticeable in the cabin.

what could it be?

thanks

What happens when you push on the bumper ?

it has nothing to do with the bumper

people are telling me that its either the strut or something involving the rotor.

lol..push on the bumper so it moves the car up and down silly //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/tongue.gif.6130eb82179565f6db8d26d6001dcd24.gif

If it makes the creeking noise then its probably the strut/spring

hmm lets think about this for a sec .. cricket sound and it gets worse when you speed up.. and you just replaced the axles where the sound is comming from.... did you have this sound BEFORE you changed the axles? if not then i would first suspect the axles.

Yep yep

Bad CV joints will make a clicking noise when you turn hard and slow.

Like there is rocks under the hubcap

the sound was there before the axles were changed

its probably the control arm //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crap.gif.7f4dd41e3e9b23fbd170a1ee6f65cecc.gif
