This one is a bit of a mystery, but you guys seem to know everything about Omies, hopefully you can give me some ideas. I bought my car about 2 years ago, and after a month I began to hear a knocking-like sound from the front passenger side wheel when going over minor bumps. I took my car in for a full service and had the front two shocks changed. After a few weeks it started up again. The next time I took it to get my car inspected I told another mechanic to check it out and change what needed to be. He said it was the stabilizer, changed it, and it was good for about 4 weeks. Started up again..I figured I'd just try and forget about it, although very audible.
Then I saw that my two front tires (both less then a year old) had the inner thread completely worn away. I bought some new winter tires and took in for suspension tests to a different mechanic. They tightened some things, knocked around a few places, but didn't change anything. The car felt brand new....for a month and a half. Now I have the same sound again. This afternoon I took it to yet another wheel and suspension mechanic, he said everything looks ok and we spent about a half hour trying to figure out what the sound is.
Sorry about the long text, but figured it would help to have a background story. So 4 mechanics , 2 new tires, a stabilizer, a set of new shocks, and alot of cash later....any ideas?
