Noise from left front suspension area, help!
 

Guys, I would LOVE some help here. I have this noise that comes from the left front area. It makes a noise when the car moves, it might click once or twice, and it does not sound like the typical pad shift. It doesn't do it while turning but I do hear it sometimes when the wheel is turned. It sounds tinny, almost like if you were to tap the exhaust or dust shield. The sound is 4 seconds in, all I did was move the car up and down. It does not feel suspension related but there is something clicking. Any ideas?

I saw this on Facebook.
Something under tension is releasing. It could be the shock spring collar isn’t seated correctly.

To start off, I would loosen and retighten the lug bolts making sure they're tightened to the correct specs... 103 lbft per the owner's manual page 372.

Lug bolts are tight, in fact the wheel has been off 2 times to check for the noise with the bolts torqued after each time.

No LCA bushings installed?

I do have Figs LCAs installed.

when did it start and what changed before the sound was heard?

That could be your problem right there!

Yes. OP was trolling us, to see who would ask the question, “what have you changed/modified?’ That is part of every diagnosis. And it sounds like a pu bushing doing it’s normal creaking/popping.

Try retorquing the bolts and/or relubricate the bushing.

Not trolling, and it isn;t a poly bushing noise.

Well, is your car still under warranty? Regardless, i guess it's time to have a pro look at it :)

Did you check the brake shield, as mentioned in the FB group?

I did, I moved he shield to make sure it was clear. No help.

The noise sounds almost like exhaust related so that might be my next look.

Maybe the spring sitting in the cup? Could be debris in there or something? My first guess would have been stiction in the suspension, control arms, tie-rod ends. Lots of moving parts in there.
