    ball joint or control arm?

    my car is still making funky noises on the driver side wheel well. at first everyone i talked to ppl that said that it was my shocks where gonna blow out so i replaced them wit kyb gr-2s and yet they still make noise but fewer than b4. when ever i tap the gas, theres a poping sound on the driver side. o yea wen im on the expressway over 60 the noise is constant and it sounds like my wheel is gonna come off. can some1 help me figure out whats up w/ my car? thanx

    Have you ever taken your car in for the recall?

    Dude, inspect your lateral control arm, axles, and your driverside wheel hub bearings.

    Not how fast your car goes but how good u drive going fast.

    Just out of curiosity, is it like 2-5 "pop"s when you take off or come to a stop? I only ask because that's what mine does..and I've concluded that it's the sway bar bushings. I've just been too lazy to change them out. Just a thought.
    Staying busy is important. After all, idle hands spend time at the genitles.
