Why is my rear end popping?

Why is my rear end popping?

A bad axle bearing is usually the main reason for noise when cornering. When the noise comes on the right side of the car during a right turn, it usually means that the outside axle bearing is worn. Another cause could be worn out differential-case bearings, and these can also cause noise when turning.

Why does my car keep making a popping noise?

When I turn there is a popping noise?

The most common cause of a popping noise from the wheels is a damaged CV joint. When a CV joint gets broken, the axle’s flexibility also diminishes, the grease gets everywhere behind the wheels, and the CV joint produces a constant popping noise every time the wheels are turned.

What noise does CV joint make?

The CV joint noises are usually clicking or popping, either when driving straight, turning left or right, braking, accelerating or driving over bumps. The CV joints are critical components connecting the transmission to the wheels.

Does a bad CV joint make a noise?

A CV joint that has become worn out from being used too much will cause a knocking sound. This noise can come from the inner joint on a front-wheel drive car. Alternate back and forth between acceleration and deceleration and listen for louder knocking sounds. This is proof of a bad CV joint.
