What Causes the Clicking Sound from the Chassis When Turning the Steering Wheel?
1 Answers
The reasons for the clicking sound from the chassis when turning the steering wheel are as follows: 1. Sound from the turn signal reset: If the turn signal is activated while turning, the sound may come from the rebound clip of the automatic reset mechanism of the turn signal. This situation requires confirmation by the car owner and is considered normal. 2. Noise from the steering column dust cover: If the noise comes from below the steering wheel, it might be caused by the steering column dust cover. Lack of lubrication in the dust cover can lead to friction sounds. 3. Noise from the stabilizer bar: Check if the stabilizer bar bushing is loose or damaged. A loose or damaged stabilizer bar bushing can cause noise not only when turning the steering wheel but also when driving on uneven roads. A loose stabilizer bar bushing can be fixed by adding shims, while a damaged one must be replaced.
