#23280, "Need help with problem!!"
Mar-29-04 03:54 AM by Eclipse R97

          

I hear this clunking noise from front of car when I go over bumps on roads like somethings about to fall off. It comes from left and right sid of car but from front and only hear it when im on bumpy roads. I've checked but can not pin point where so I am clueless to where exactly so only know that it is from the front.

What could be the problem?

Just curious, how old is your suspension and do you have it lowered???
If your suspension is old and is bottoming out, you may be hitting parts of your body underneath or scraping the oil pan as you go over speed bumps. Just a suggestion.........

Well, 1st thing I would do is check the suspension. If its all original, it is way past time to change. Nothing too big, maintainance. That really is my only guess. If your front suspension is bottoming out, it would cause scrapes under the car (ie hitting the oil pan, chassis, body kit if any). If that is your only problem then you should be set.
