Hello everyone. I'm hoping you guys could help me out with this one. I have a Toyota Altis 2009 G model.
I have been hearing this knocking sound by the front end suspensions, both sides, every time I hit a pothole. Sometimes even on small bumps on a relatively smooth road.
I have had the following replaced to hopefully get rid of the annoying sound:
- shock absorbers
- ball joints
- lower suspension bushing
- stabilizer links
- stabilizer bar bushing
- rack end
- tie rod end
- wheel bearing
But it's still there!
I am suspecting that it's the inner CV joint that's causing the noise. Would I be able to buy a separate inner CV joint, not the whole set (outer CV joint + axle + inner CV joint)? Has anybody else had this problem? Do you know any mechanics you trust around the Diliman area where I can get a second opinion? My current mechanic says it's just the doors but I kind of doubt that.
Thanks in advance for any input about this.
