Default My car sounds like a Frappucino machine...

Okay so I took the car in a few months ago to get new tie rods. As soon as I got the car back, whenever I back out of a driveway and turn the steering wheel, At the outer fringes of the turning radius something goes *clunk* and it starts making sounds like a frappucino machine. WTF? It only does it in reverse when i turn the wheel to like 85% of its max. This never happens in D4.



Thanx for the help guys. BTW the walrus thing is taken care of, turns out the PS fluid was massively diluded, i just flushed it and added new PS fluid and bam, no more walrus!

Sounds like front axles. Look under the car if you have torn boots. If they are, you may just hear the axle bearing roll. But the clicking sound says it all: axles!

If you need new Axels I recommend HONDA remanufactured. Auto Zone and Advance Auto axels SUCK! .. I bought a set when I had a stock F22 .. 2 weeks they were clunking.. and the boots were still mint!
