182 - Clicking/tapping from o/s arch area turning at low speed

[MistaT]

My trophy still doesn't drive properly, i think this could be part of the cause, i barely drive the car now and just leave it in the garage!

Anyway when turning into and out of parking spaces, if i have the window down i've noticed a cracking/binding/tapping noise that is speed related, it probably happens once per rotation of the wheel and at virtually any amount of lock. It is coming from the drivers side suspension/hub/bearing. Sounds to me like the bearing could be screwed, but it feels tight and rentech spent a few hours looking at the car and couldn't find any problems.

Damn car

CV joints start to click when they are starting to die, usually on lock. Could be that.

Nah i've heard that before, it doesn't sound like a driveshaft although i guess it could be!
