I've heard about the "thunk in the trunk," but I've got something clunking away somewhere under the forward part of my car. Happens whenever I go over any road irregularities and when I turn right.
Loose exhaust? Suspension mount? Tie rod end? Don't know. I took the car to a large, empty parking lot last evening and did some figure-eights. When turning right, as the left front suspension loaded up, I'd hear a "thunk" every time (didn't happen when turning left). The noise didn't continue if I kept turning clockwise--only upon initial turn-in. But in my 18-mile commute this morning, whatever it is was rattling away underneath.
What the heck?
