Strange Noise From Front Wheel
Occasionally when I'm driving on even mildly uneven roads, I hear a consistent noise coming from my front, driver's side wheel. It's like a thud, or a bang. It honestly sounds like I'm hitting rubber to metal, maybe my bump stops, but I'm sure if the front has bump stops. I thought at first it was my wheel being loose, but it's securely fastened so I'm lost.
Thanks.
Thanks.

It sounds more like a suspension or hub noise.

Driving around to specifically listen to the noise it seems as though something is popping in and out. Like a sheet of metal bending back and forth.

I don't see anything, nor do I feel anything.
I'm going to pick-up a set of Tein springs soon and pray that for some act of God they fix my problem. Haha.
I'm starting to think my brake pads are wore, but the calipers aren't adjusting to the pad. My brake pedal doesn't feel smooth and I would think that a loose pad might clunk around on bumps and turns.

Alright, so I'm pretty sure it's my shock now. Going around a curve, the left front kind of bounces up and down numbly. I don't think there is anything wrong with the spring.
