suspension wear question

On the front passenger side of my car the suspension makes a loud clunk noise when i go over any bump and i was wondering what parts are wearing out and what needs to be replaced. There was also a small noise out of the back left. I don't know how many kms are on the suspension because it was bought with it. It's Ksport brand suspension on the car right now.

Re: suspension wear question

Big chances are your front lower control arm bushing is broken. That's why you hear that noise when you go over and bump

negative. its a bushing/rubber piece on your lower control arm (LCA).

i made a simple fix for it but this fix isnt as good as getting actual energy suspension replacement fix.

Re: suspension wear question

Yes check your lower ball joint too. More likely to be a LCA bushign though.
