Re: Brought the Lumina to a mechanic today
thanks for the replies guys, but i mentined upper strut bearings, and he didn seem like that was the case since it wasnt really doing it while standing still and just truning the wheels. He seemed to think more of it being the bearing down below since the spring doesnt turn. He turned the wheel side to side as i watched, and i noticed that the spring would sort of bind on one side, and try to turn with the strut. So, that why i was thinking maybe he could be right. Try it yourself, get a partner to turn your wheels while your car is running, and watch in the fender, look at the spring stayng stationary as the strut turns with the wheels. The mecahnic thought the noise could be coming from the lower strut bearing.
