steering noise

[jake7420]

when i steer left or right something in the steering or suspension pops and bangs. Im not quite sure wut it is, ive looked at the cvs and they visually look ok, when i pull them (as if i were trying to pull it out of the hub) theres a small amount of play both sides. It does it when im completely stopped or driving. Also when im slowing down with the clutch out you can hear a noise like the cv is loose and its pretty loud. A couple of days ago it was bump steering randomly too but that has seemed to stopped. The car has been curbed on the drivers front, the wheel bearing makes some noise too. Any help would be great

If it is a crunching noise when turning the wheel, that would be a cv joint.

its not a crunch its just a quick short bang

"It does it when im completely stopped or driving" - likely your Tie Rod Ends...cv's typically make a racket when you're moving...

"the wheel bearing makes some noise too. Any help would be great" - replace the bearing...

the tie rods are tight, do you really think the wheel bearing could make a noise like that? when i pull on the cv it has some play on the hub side, i thought its supposed to be tight there and some play by the tranny
