Re: front end noise

Not necessarily, the problem could be with the upper strut mount, dry bushing or a sticking brake. I would have someone check the CV joint to make sure that it is not loose and I would also have the brake and strut checked. You can lubricate the rubber bushings by spraying a good quality silicone lubricant on them. If one is dry that should correct the issue.

Finally, you may want to have the upper and lower control arm bushings checked to make sure one has not gone bad. You can do this but you may want to have a mechanic or alignment shop check it for you. Good Luck!
