So when Im going slow, like idling or rolling out of the driveway, i have a clunk coming from the front suspension when i turn the wheel a certain way.

I know theres a TSB, and a DIY fix that have you take the front strut brace off and remove the shock to be able to get at the nut on the upper arm and give it a half turn or whatever to make it stop clunking...

but has anyone found a tool that you can fit in there without taking apart the front end or having to take it to the dealer?

 

Yeah a 14mm wrench.

I thought I had the clunk, but it was a bad sway bar endlink. I would check those first.

 

Thanks, i'll double check that. The last oil change i did, I gave everything a once over and didnt get any movement on anything, which leads me to believe I have the Clunk. errr.

 

Any regular wrench should fit in there... A socket, not so much.

 

ayite.. i'll pop the wheel off and give her hell. the night i did the oil change i tried to loosen the lugs and ended up tearing the lug key because the tire jockeys torqued em too much. I just went back to get em to loosen and re-torque to spec, so i'll have to get in there and give it a shot this week.

 

Could be broken sway bar, steering rack, or where the lower control arm goes into the spindle.

 

I just got my car back from Nissan. I have the same problem and sent it in to have the endlinks replaced... but it still makes that noise. I should probably try and diagnose this issue before it gets worse. I should keep the .9G turns to a minimum
