R50/53 Weird Clunking/Clicking/Grinding Noise
Weird Clunking/Clicking/Grinding Noise
This just started coming up recently, but every time I take a left turn, there is a really annoying clicking/grinding/clunking noise on the front left. I looked it up online and it says that the cv joint could be busted but I feel like that's highly unlikely since i swapped both cv axles like 2 months ago when I did brakes and coils. Anybody else have this issue? Its only on the front left, not front right. Also, it doesn't happen if I'm not on the gas. If I'm turning while coasting, the noise doesn't happen. If I press the gas, it starts clicking. Any ideas what it might be? Thanks in advance.

I bought oem replacements from NAPA. Don’t remember if there was a specific brand. i’ll get it up on the lift sometime this month and check them out if you think that’s the issue
