    Hi Goinghaamhereonout Cato, I want to help you with your question, but I need more information from you. Can you please add details in the comment box? Are you spinning the wheel while it is jacked up or is the knocking noise coming when you are driving and turn the steering wheel? What year, make, and model is the car?

Check wheel bearings for condition and check the disc rotor for a crack in a face.

Front is making noise when I turn

Kim:

Check your wheel bearings and ball joints. Checking the wheel bearings: stand next to the front tire, crouch down, put your hands on the top of the tire, and try to rock the top of the tire by pushing the top of the tire away from you and pulling the top of the tire toward you (rock it hard and fast). do both front tires. Any noise or sideways movement of the tire is bad, (Bearings are worn) and needs to be repaired. Then, stand at the front corner of the car, and push down on the front corner of the car repeatedly (rocking the corner of the car up and down (Rock it up and down Hard) If you hear the popping noise your ball joints need to be replaced. If these tests don't work but you still get the popping noise when you drive, take the car to a mechanic. Popping noises from the front end of a car is dangerous. If anything happens up there, you could lose your steering!

Falcon troubleshooting

One or more of your tires are no good.
How to check this is : hard to explain.. but will try.. Rub your hand on top the tire... If you are on the passenger side of car rub them counterclockwise and drivers side clockwise... If the tread is bumpy, it will make that noise... If the treads are smooth, then the tire or tires ar o.k.

I have a 2004 toyota sequoia and noticed yesterday that there was a tapping noise. Initially I thought it was a flat tire but all the tires are good. Not sure where to go from here...

check for a screw or nail stuck in your tire. other causes would be loose lug nuts, or noisey hub caps ( you probably dont have those ). you can roll down the windows and have a helper identify the location of the noise. roll down a safe street and put in neutral, turn key to off - for gods sake dont lock up the steering wheel!!!! try to pinpoint which corner of the car noise is coming from. A bad CV joint would make a tapping-clanking noise but mostly when turning.

2002 eldorado makes a loud noise when I'm driving. If I'm parked and pressing the gas I don't hear it but as soon as I begin to drive and I get around 15 mph I hear it coming from the passenger side. I...

If the noise doesn't change when you turn left or right while you are moving than The first thing I would look at is the tire. Check for uneven wear or cupping. The tread should be worn evenly and smoothly all the way around the tire. Something you can try to at least eliminate the tires as the problem is to rotate the tires. If the noise changes, stops, or moves from the front to the rear than you know its the tires.

If the noise still persists after rotating the tires than we will have to think of something else.

Ticking noise in front end. Just like the person of the 02 issue

My first thought is a rock hung in the tire but surely you have checked for that? If you only hear it as the tire turns and it get faster as the tire tire turns faster then it has to be either the tire, brakes, or wheel bearing. Remove the wheel and throughly inspect everything. Look for a rock or some other object stuck in the tire or the brake system. You may have to remove the pads to find it. Inspect the brake slide pins and lubricate them with brake grease. Clean all rust and corrosion from the brake components with a wire brush and brake cleaner.
