I have noticed lately when im pulling out of my parking sport and I go to turn my wheel when backing up(while moving not at dead stop) that I notice a tick sound. Just one when its about ¾ full rotation and another when I drive forward and straighten out. I don’t off road or anything so I didn’t hit anything under there.
Sound from what I can tell its coming from the front end area. The tie rods feel tight, no play going down the road, wiggle test feel nice and responsive. I know my ball joints are starting to ware a bit, can hear that on some bumps but I wouldn’t think that would be it.
I haven’t gotten a chance to get the front end up and crawl under there due to weather and work. I was wondering if anyone had any knowledge or past experience with this. I don’t feel like it’s a major problem I just like to keep my ST in top condition.
Thanks,
Tad Murphy
