Welcome to my world man. I just changed mine yesterday and its still making a weird popping when I take off in 1st. I don't get it. I'm at my wits end with this car.
 
well its not getting any better i have no clue a about this ...... i know its comeing from tha same side,,,, any other ideas?
 
well i have noticed after driving in reverse for about 200 ft. that it makes the sound really bad when im drivig in reverse... some body help me out here
 
actually the motor mount on the top is gone... and sometimes it seems like the sound of a motor mount but..... bnot all the time unless becuse of the worn out mount it puts strain on the cv joint maybe????

how hard are they to change
 
Suspect a ball joint in the control arm or lateral arm. Thats what mine turned out to be.
