Poltergeist
Ready to race!
u know how the asphalt is wavy and sticking up in front of some bus stops?
maybe it's only here in Canada cuz they dont know how to fix or pave the road.
anyway yesterday it was dark and I went over one. I shouldn't have gotten close to bus stops but I was careless. my car is lowered and the part thats sticking upwards hit my engine cradle(or some call it subframe) close the the left front wheel.
It was loud, and I was going a good 40km/h. might be slower cuz I was just about to turn a corner into an alley.
Car is driving fine but there is metal clicking noise when I turn the steering almost all the way(it's not the sound I hear when steering is turned all the way)
sounds like something is loose, or slightly hitting each other. this noise was definitely not there till I hit that thing.
This morning I jacked up the front end and checked for damage. small scratch around the left edge of the cradle(right under the sway bar bushings) but nothing else.
As far as I can see, nothing is loose.
Noise is gone once car is jacked up. and comes back when on ground. so I guess it only makes noise under load.
The noise is not loud, and only happens when turning the wheels.
I'm not expecting an exact guess but could some of you experts tell me what could be the damage and if it's till safe to drive a long distance, like road trip?
