it pops after i get about a circle of turning the wheel, and back too. but no noise after the pop if i keep moving my car. My civic has about 61k miles on it, and on my accord...same problem is happening but it only has 41k miles.

Re: Steering Noise Problem

Hmmm.. well depending how bad the road conditions are in your area.. it might be just your upper mounts are worn out and need replacing. Just find some time to take the wheel off and inspect the CV Axles and suspension components. Make sure everything is tight and not coming undone.

Re: Steering Noise Problem

I'm getting a lot of creaking noises when turning like at right angles left or right and when leaving parking spaces. Mostly coming from the drivers side. I put new shocks and springs on about 9 months ago and so far they look ok. I know the strut is indexed properly... it just started gettng bad and making the noises all the time in the last couple weeks.

I'm going to try and get the car up on a lift this weekend and see if I can figure out what the hell it is.

Re: Steering Noise Problem

wow i havnt posted in months. but anyways, i have this problem too. when i do a full right turn lock, i get a pop or clicking sound, usually right before i lock, or right after i lock and start turning left. it doesnt matter if im moving or stopped, i makes the sound either way.

off topic, my auto tranny is kicking a lot less now.. hmmm weird.
