Nissan Repair: nissan sentra clunk, nissan sentra, cv boot
QuestionI have a 92 nissan sentra and it makes a large clunk from the front passenger side when hitting a bump. At one time it did sound like the cv joint clicking but now there is a large clunk. If I bounce the car up and down while sitting in driveway i can't reproduce the sound. Only when driving. Is this a CV problem, strut problem, or bearing plate? Thanks.
AnswerEd,
If you look inside the front wheels and there is a lot of grease the CV boot is blown. If you have a clunk when hitting bumps it is probably the strut. The strut plate usually makes noise when turning the wheel. But, the strut makes noise when you ride over bumps.
