rcool217 Posted April 27, 2006 Report Share Posted April 27, 2006 I took my car into a local shop to diagnose a popping noise in the left front suspension. It occurs when hitting the brake or turning at slow speeds. It pops and cracks. My wife and I went out to eat while the car was at the shop and when we got back they said it was the strut mount. I don't even think they did anything but drive it around the block. I then took the car home and took of the driver's side wheel and looked around. I noticed that a couple of bushings were cracked open and worn out. I think its called a stabilizer link. It goes from the strut to the control arm. I ordered the link from Nappa for $30. My question is, cuold this be my problem and if it is the strut mount what can I do to quiet it down? Any idea's. Also is it going to be hard to put this new link on? I have a 96 Deville Thx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhall Posted April 27, 2006 Report Share Posted April 27, 2006 Noises are tough to diagnose over the forum. The noise could possibly be from a worn CV joint on one of the driveshafts for example, but if you see worn suspension parts the best course is to have a close look at this area and replace as needed.
