Message:
Umm so i have noticed lately since its nice out i have my windors down and when i am not on the gas i can hear something in my passenger front wheel well area making a jingle or ticking noise. i was wondering if anybudy knows what that might be? i was thinking bearings or something? any help? oh and it doesnt affect any performance or driving or nothing just the noise right now that is all i just dont want it to do any damage later on so i thought if i could i'd fix it or get it fixed. thanks

Noticed the same thing on an old car I had. Inspected that front suspension 8 ways from Sunday, never could find anything wrong. Drove me nuts. Then I noticed one of the inside wheel weights was loose.

check the little rubber bushings ono the sway bar ends. if one of those bushings is gone the washers on there will make a noise like you describe.

If the clips on your brake pads are lose so that the pads can wiggle freely and you happen to have a slightly warped rotor, it can make a ticking noise. Just an Idea I have run across before.

i checked the bushing they are still there...u know i did hit a curb back when there was snow and it blew my tire right off the rim i replaced the wheel and tire with a stock 15 my buddy had a his shop so i could get it to my buddies shop and put the tire back on the wheel and when i had the wheels off i looked to see if it did any damage but i didnt see nothing...oh i messed his wheel up put a really deep gash in the inside cause i got 16's and i had 15 on there for like 3 blocks and i blew his tire to shreads cause my caliper dug into the wheel...so i'm gonna check the pad and roto out.

could be a washer ringing on a bolt that is backing out or a nut that is loose. Had one on my Chevy truck and for the life of me couldn't find it. It was on a front end piece where the bolt was backing out and the threads got ruined from movement. Cost only $75 for a new piece but wish I could have found it earlier.
