Noises

Post by Doc »

Took the XM out for a test drive today after replacing both ball joints on Sunday. I can still hear a knocking sound when the front wheels hit any kind of bump in the road. I have checked steering rack mounts, wheel bolts, disc retaining screws, bearings, control arm bushes and have replaced droplinks and track rod ends. The CV joints are okay and silent on full lock. The car drives straight and doesn't wander like it did before the balljoints were changed. But I am still getting knocking. Accelerating and braking are all normal as is cornering. Are there any XM owners out there that may know what is causing the knocking as its now getting cold out here, I'm feeling a little p***ed off with it and the remake of Battlestar Galactica is on Sky tonight and I dont want to miss it...sad I know
I thank you in advance for any advice.
