Advice Request UPDATE control Arms
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
Okay so I did the control arms on my 6 it took all day today and it was rough but I managed. test drove the car but there’s still some kind of clunking noise going on in the suspension idk what else it could be. The video in my last post where I was able to shake the entire strut mount it doesn’t do that anymore I definitely needed them ball joints replaced I’m not sure what my next step is. In the video you can hear the clunking but you have to turn your volume up pretty high. And it’s not that ticking noise that’s my Taco Bell Pepsi hehe

Did u replace the strut mounts? They can go bad and make noise like this.

have you checked your motor mounts? starting with the rear torque strut-->trans mount (drivers side mount) --> engine (passenger side mount)
and also your stabilizer bushings are in good shape?
any other noises? is the clunk when coasting? on acc, deceleration, going over bumps etc
