Clunk Noise When Accelerating During Turns
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2017 Chevrolet Spark. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
A clunk noise that occurs while accelerating during turns may be caused by wear and/or damage to the inboard and the outboard joints in combination. The loss of lubricant and/or the presence of contaminants can cause damage to the internal components of the joints.
Carefully inspect the joint seals for cuts, tears or other damage. Joint seals that are damaged may allow lubricant leakage and the entry of contaminants.
If inspection reveals no visual evidence of wear or damage, inspect the wheel drive shaft inner and outer joints. Refer to Wheel Drive Shaft Outer Joint Inspection or Wheel Drive Shaft Inner Joint Inspection
