Any One Have Any Popping In Front Of Their Car?

[gizz8699]

Mine has been popping from day one.

Only heard this happening due to lowering of the car.

No mine doesn't.

I got it.

Mine has the same problem for now. It is probably caused by the upper spring mounts. It is a plastic spring isolator. You can switch to a bearing type from say Steeda. This should get rid of that annoying popping. This is what I'm going to use.

My 03 used to do this as well and it was the upper strut mount bushing. It had flattened out so the strut was banging around in the tower. Hard to see when just looking under the hood but my mechanic found it. My 08 isnt doing this (yet).

Would this bushing not have been replaced with the upper mounts?

The problem as far as I understand is the plastic upper strut mount. If it is still popping after being replaced with something besides the factory piece, I would look elsewhere for the problem. Sorry I have no other guesses.

i have the popping only when exiting/entering my driveway. i have to drive up and back out at an angle so it doesnt rub in the front.

Hmmm, when I first back out of the garage or a parking space, and turn to the left while letting out the clutch slooowly, I hear a popping/clicking that I feel is coming from the pressure plate or CSC. Only seems to happen at that time. Not sure this is what others are hearing.

Sorry to keep bringing this up just wondering if anyone has found a fix yet. This is driving me crazy. Thanks for any help.
