abnormal front end noise
I have a 2003 Honda Accord v6 with 51000 miles on it. It has generally been a good car. Nevertheless, I am having a front end rattling problem latlely.
If I bear left for turn left, I hear a rattling sound at medium or fast driving speeds. This sound is coming from the front end of the vehicle. It only happens when I bear for turn left not while driving straight of turning right.
I have checked for a loose heat shield or loose lug nuts--they are okay. The Haynes Manual says to check for :
loose suspension bolts
loose wheel nuts
worn control arm bushings or tie rod ends
damaged shock absorber mounts or
lack of lubrication at balljoints or tie rod ends.
I have not checked for these yet.
Being that it happens only when I bear or turn left, one of these be more likley than another? Has anyone out there had a similar problems?
Thanks for your help.
