Hi guys like i mentioned in the other thread... My car seems to be making a small pop noise when i hit a bump or take a sharp tight turn towards the right.. I got the car checked a second time and the guys at 191 motorsports found nothing wrong with the car.. but also mentioned that when i drive the car in the rain on a rainy day, there is no more pop. Anyone experienced this ?:confused:

Car has 27600 kms

It must be the Beiber effect.

OK - In that case, it could be something wedged against the dust shield for one of the front calipers, a CV joint that is on its way out, a bad lower ball joint, etc.

The CV joint would sound more like it..

Can it be the shock ?? I dont know how the top plates work on this car, but when i pop the hood, i can see the shock, but there are now screws holding it. All i see is a black rubber about 3 inches in diameter.. How do you remove the shock on this thing... anyways im scheduled wednesday morning for another road test.. :confused:

The top rubber thing is just a cover. under there is the threaded top of the strut, which has an allen recess in the top of it (to hold it while removing the top nut). A broken spring would be more likely to make noise than a bad shock.
