Default Turning

Hi guys-

When i make wide left turn, i hear a metallic knocking. Also when I go fast over bumps, I hear the knocking as well on the left drivers side.

I had my CV axle changed and I still hear it

Whats wrong?

Welcome to the forum,is it a continuous knocking,it could be the rear bearing seeing as how you replaced the axles.

Also depends on where you got your cv axle. some axles when overhauled do not replace everthing and take shortcuts. So it is possible that the noise is from the axle you just changed.

Hi Acmech-

I got the faulty axl changed at the dealership. It was covered. Thank Jesus! So now I could make hard left turns without the knocking. Now, its when i make wide left turns.
