I have done a bit of searching and have yet to see my exact problem.

Symptoms include:

Clicking/Clunking when turning to the right at speeds higher than approximately 30mph. It's not a threatening noise as much as it is annoying sounding. It doesn't really transmit through the steering wheel, if it does it is VERY minor.

Noise disappears at lower speeds when turning right.

No noise or anything odd when going straight or when turning to the left at any speed.

No noise when stopped turning wheel from left lock all the way to right lock.




I briefly looked under the vehicle and don't see anything unusual, but I can't say for sure until i can get the wheel off and investigate.

I'm hoping this sounds familiar to someone and you can shed some light on what my problem could potentially be. I have to drive to work until Wednesday so hopefully it isn't anything too crazy and serious.

Lift the right front wheel off the ground. With the wheel still attached, grasp the 12 and 6 O'clock position and shake it vertically to see if there's any play. This is to check for control arm bushings, ball joints, etc. Do the same, this time horizontally at the 9 and 3 O'clock position. This is to check for tie rod (inner and outer). Grasp at a diagonal (between 1 & 3 and 7 & 8 positions), this would be for wheel bearings if there is play in it.

Are there any unsual humming noises traveling straight?

It's a wheel bearing. Thanks for your help what parts do i need to do the wheel bearing replacement? Races and bearings? Just the bearing? I'm a little confused as to what parts i should actually order. If someone can let me know I would very much appreciate it.


Thanks in advance.

I wanted to bump this as it helped me find a bushing going out, very helpful. Thanks
