I have a strange knock/popping noise when I accelerate or come to a stop. If I don't hear it when accelerating, it will sound off when accelerating around a corner.
I tried to bounce the vehicle without sound. I also checked everything to look for cracks or loose joints, but this happens under load so it would be hard to replicate. I had a tie rod break on me once and the sound is nearly the same but the replacement looks good.
Can't tell if it is coming from the front or the back, left or right side. The noise is transmitted through the body so may be hard to hear outside.
Don't know if it might be a broken leaf spring. Couldn't see any cracked ones. The front Sway Bar bushing is worn out so it might be that the bar hits the mounting strap. Not too confident that is the problem though.
Could it be bad control arm bushings?
How about brakes?
