Cheers everyone, I'm trying to find the cause of the noise my car is doing.
It only does it when doing quick left to right movements, e.g. driving through the city and moving quickly to one side to avoid a potthole or something.
I uploaded a short video so you can hear the noise. It is a little louder and deeper in reality compared to the video.
Any ideas?


Thanks!!

 

You need to jack up the frontend and pull, push, shake everything.

 

Cheers, I checked everything but it all felt tight. I still had the old sway bar links so got new ones and installed them, greased all the ball joints and checked the damper bolts (had to use some off-spec bolts last time I installed them). Now the noise is gone!

 

Maybe just dry balljoints?

 

I usually grease them like every 2-3000 miles, so I'm not sure if it was a dry balljoint or the sway bar links though. But will check the ball joints more often now. Thank you!

 

The noise has come back. Greased the ball joints (both upper and lower ball joints) and the tie rods. Noise is still there. Damn! So are the new tie rods broken again?!
Will disconnect the sway bar and check it again.
I have a "feeling" that it is coming from the sway bar bushings though. I feel some "noise" in the footwell when I also hear it. The rubber bushings are new but there was quite some corrosion on the sway bar itself that was hard to remove. So maybe now the grease is all out and it is making the noises?
Best idea to solve that? Any good idea to grind down the rust all the way around the sway bar?
Thank you!!!

 

Can you make the noise happen when you are sitting still? If you can, have someone else work the steering wheel, while you go looking for the noise.

As for the sway bar, just scrub the surface with something like 80 grit sandpaper, then hit it with some variety of rust converter. Grease the bushings while you have it apart.

 

Noise is only present when the car is moving. Can't make it happen when I'm e.g. shaking it by jumping on the rocker bars.

I think I will do like you said. Already did it a bit like it last time, but the "back side", where the sway bar is closer to the frame, was hard to get to. Maybe I have to completely remove it to clean it.
Used some silicone grease last time, so maybe that's why it was quiet now for 2,5 months?

 

Could be the grease didn't penetrate very far, and was either worn off, or washed off...... Pulling the brackets/bushings, and thoroughly lubing them up *should* last longer.

 

I did that, removed the bushings and greased them all. A lot got pushed out though after installing the brackets though. But I think it is because the sway bar wasn't really "round" with lots of corrosion still on.
