Re: !Help! please, snap/or/pop noise when turning???

Does the noise happen only one pop and does it happen right when you stop after backing up? The Cavy does that too, I dont know what it is but I think it has something to do with the drum brakes in back.

Re: !Help! please, snap/or/pop noise when turning???

That seems pretty odd that it would do it only once. On my talon when the cv joints were bad it was more of a ticking sound coming from the wheel well when the wheel was turned and i was accelerating. When my struts were loose, it would make a popping noise everytime i would hit a bump, i tightened them up and they were fine. My GSX makes kind of a popping/clanking sound when i let the clutch out, im thinking maybe too much backlash on the rear diff. I checked the U joints and they are all good. Any ideas on that?

I wish you wouldn't leave us waiting for 5 years to hear what the problem was.

My guess is that it was your front wheel bearing that needed replacing.

You should know better than bringing up a 5 year old thread. Especially when you knew it was this old!
