So I replaced my left front cv shaft about dec/Jan and my right front one acouple weeks ago. Everything was fine but I hav noticed recently that when I turn left I still hear a creaking sound, the sound I thought was the cv joint clicking. I dont think it's the half shaft cause I just replaced it but I'm not sure what else could could be making the cracking sound

 

*creaking sound

 

Any chance that it could be your Control Arms?

 

It's possible although I think the guy who owned it before me did them not too long ago. It doesn't creak every time though that's wats weird. What would a control arm sound like

 

well, it could sound like it was creaking, and what not. Are the boots around the ball joints cracked or broken?

 

Idk I will look tomarrow

 

Could be a wheel bearing. Does it matter how fast you are going? Maybe an alignment?? Just throwing ideas out there =D

 

thanks. Usually the only time i hear the sound anymore is when turning left from a dead stop. most of the time i have to stilll be in first gear too but not everytime.

 

check your tie rods and whatever else. Mine is doing the same thing but it happens if i dont go in a straight line lol
