well could you be alittle more helpful? your profile is blank. are you lowered? does it happen when you turn? does it happen when you go over bumps? etc....
its not lowered it happends when i take a right turn .. usually when im pulling out of a parking. not while driving or taking turns its not very often ill just here like a pop clunk sound then thats it...its coming from the right side for sure though..

im a little confused lol. well my suggestion would be jack up the side where its coming from and take a look at the spring. see if its seated properly on the perch or up at the mount. that could be why your hearing a pop

I had this problem with my Pro-Streets. The spring was not seated correctly, so the shop had to fab up some piece that would keep it from stopping this.
I don't know if you have done this, but it is louder inside the car and hardly noticeable when you're outside of the car.
never did notice from outside . i do hear it on the inside of the car and its pretty loud,,
Is it only when you're driving at slow speeds? You said when you make a right turn. I'd like to take a guess and say it is more noticeable when you turn the wheel sharply, at these slow speeds.
strut bearing i have one gone in ma car....thats my best guess

You're a fu(king idiot. Save it for the strip, especially your 2.2 you got there. I can push a grocery cart faster than that piece of sh*t.

I guess that would be your springs, it happened to me too, it's not "sitting" properly, or your mount bearings....it's not "turning" with the springs...
Ya well i just wanted something better than my 88 honda accord so ya it was cheap $1150.00 so beat that all power options and 5spd with 118,895 when i got it does'nt leak a drop
