Whenever I turn into my driveway I get a single loud knock coming from what appears to be around the right tire. I'm no mechanic, any ideas?

tierod end or balljoint most likely.

From the right rear? Is this a 4 wheel steering version?? [8D]


Could be a loose control arm or shock tower. Take out the trunk carpet with the car on the ground and see if the shocks are properly torqued down (35 ft/lbs.)

Jack the car up and check everything in the rear (control arms, bottom shock mounts, rear sway bar etc.)

^^^where did he say anything about the rear i would also check the balljoint and tierod. jack up the front of the car...use stands....and see if there is any play in the wheel

I used to get it when going up a curbcut. It was my upper control arm hitting the aftermarket catback

Appreciate the help! I'll check all of the above when I put it away for winter
