    I have this noise problem after spending more than a thousand dollars and still making noise after trading to the dealer I found that I still forgot to replace the rubber spacing. Now I learned something new for the suspension noise . Thanks

    Hmmm. I tried fixing it myself "over a weekend" and it became a 6 day weekend. LOL But I fixed it. The take away is: Don't do it unless you have a spare car. Great video, too! Having the whole kit is a great help.

    I really appreciate this channel. Whoever came up with the idea to create a how to channel from your company was a genius! These videos have helped me so much with my 2001 Honda Civic that has over 200k on it. Needless to say it needs some TLC and I appreciate being able to get professional help through these videos from people who can not only explain abd show me how to fix things in my car, but why I need to do it, what might be able to wait and what can't, and how one thing can lead to another. I hope you continue to create these videos!

    Wow information that is necessary to understand the problem. My mechanic “its fine” which helps nothing and offers no solution happens alot they tell me its fine and wont look into it pretty annoying. If i come to you saying this is making a noise im asking to help me fix it because you are the professional. I wish we had mechanics like this in MA

    How interesting my 4x4 88 toyota truck still has no play and the ball joints rubber boots are not leaking and are not able to be greased. 350K on the suspension. I'm glad I PAID that extra $$$ back when I bought it knew, rather than buying from the other car makers.

    Any video for an intermittent front end pop noise? I've just put on new struts, sway bar links and brake pads/rotors on my '07 Nissan Altima, but get an occasional pop sound in the right front area. Even double checked my torque spec for all including lug nuts. But it is usually when going over a bump.

    Word of warning, I messed up on ordering my part and I had to eat the cost for shipping it back. Lost $170. I was the one who messed up by not specifying that I had rear wheel drive vs 4 wheel drive, but had I ordered local and made this mistake, I would have gotten my full refund.
