2000 Camry 4cyl.front end noise "BUNG"
Hi guys.... I have a 2000 Camry, 4 cyl. It was in an accident on the front right before I bought it. I took it to Sears for alignment and 4-6 adjustments were made to pull it to within spec. One evidently is not correctable (the caster). After I bought it and after the alignment, I replaced the sway bar link, as the upper ball and socket was very loose. The problem I am trying to solve now is when I turn at low speed, I get a sound like a plucking of a large rubber band. (BUNG) I jacked and blocked up both sides and turning both ways all the way made no sound or play, and nothing is touching like the wheel well plastic or other parts. Then, I lowered the front right (where the accident was) to put weight on it, and it no noise when turning. When I lowered the left side also, there was still no sound. It only makes the sound in the first 30 minutes or so, and no sounds or shaking at 50-60 mph. Any ideas about this noise? Its not hard to hear from inside the car...if you have any ideas, I would be glad to consider them...Mike .......PS......There have been 2 opinions say that it sounds like the strut mount is binding and that the spring could break.
