Hi guys I have a 2013 Camry V6 SE that is making several weird noises in the front end.
The main noise I want to address is that when I turn either left or right and accelerate, there is a pretty loud thud sound from the bottom of the front end. I tightened the subframe bushings and all bolts related to the area around the subframe bushings, and the car holds alignment perfectly. I dont thi k it's the CV joints because the passenger CV is new and the sound seems to be related to the frame of the car shifting, rather than just a noisy CV. It takes a decent amount of force to make the noise happen. The only original parts on my front end suspension are the sway bar bushings. I will try to get a video of the noise. Any similar experiences or advice on places to check?

Control arm bushings or LBJ.

That's what I thought. I replaced both control arms (with bushings) and ball joints. It was not an easy task and I was upset that it didnt fix it lol

Well, if you replace CAs and LBJs, then you have power train mounts at fault. Power train moves quite a bit during turns and accelerating. Especially the infamous dog bone and torque mount on the passenger lower side. That's one flimsy mount.
