Front End Noise

Every now and then I get a noise in the front end when I go over a bump or even pull into my driveway which is an uphill turn. It isn't necessarily a clunk but more of a pingin sound like metal on metal. I have a 2001 GTP with approx 107k miles. The car rides a little rough but not horrible. Also, I have noticed a lack of handling. For example I cannot take turns and feel the same grip that I once had. I was thinking it was the front struts but I am not sure. Please help!!!

Re: Front End Noise

With 107K miles you are way past overdue for struts. If your handling went to pot and you feel every bump in the road then replace them. Do the front first. I replaced mine back at 70K miles with KYBs.
