What Causes a Loud Clunking Noise from the Front Chassis When Braking?
1 Answers
The reasons for a loud clunking noise from the front chassis when braking are: 1. Excessive aging of the suspension bushings. If the rubber bushings are worn out, it can increase the play between various chassis components, leading to abnormal noises. Simply replace the old rubber bushings with new ones. 2. Damage to the front shock absorber's thrust bearing. Replace it with a new one. After installing the new thrust bearing, it is essential to perform a wheel alignment to prevent the car from pulling to one side or causing uneven tire wear. When replacing the thrust bearing, always opt for OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) parts, as they offer better reliability and durability.
