I have been having this noise coming from the front of the car. Sounds like something is loose. So my ic/fan/radatior were all loose. i fixed those so now they all don't move now but the noise is still there? If i move the steering wheel back and fourth fast the noise is clearly heard. The noise is heard when ever i hit a bump. It's getting very annoying!!!!! Can anyone please help me!!!

 

This halfway sounds like what mine is doing. Mine sounds like the whole engine is loose. Only sometimes though.

 

Steering columm most likely, they have been know to be an issue on our cars making noise and the fact that you hear it when you move your steering wheel is also a steerin g columm indicator.

 

^^x2 or it could be your swaybar endlinks. i have the same issue low speeds small bumps = clunks and crazy steering issues car swerves all over the place usually around 0-5mph then all is well

 

same thing happened to me after i lowered my car. make sure the sway bar link nuts are tight

 

would this be warrantied?

 

i have an endlink nut that was half attached from factory. it rusted in place and clunked. i tightened it and it dont clunk no more

not if your lowered or over 36k miles

 

Is it like a squishy sound?

My car made that sound after I went offroading in it and it was the strut. Something wasn't seated right cause when I changed springs the sound went away.

 

its a clunking noise. wtf im lowered!!!!

 

just turn your wheels (to give you room) grab the endlinks and anything else you can find see if you can get them to move

 

last uaw built car i buy... my Maximas build quality was so much better its not even funny, and it had 102,000 miles on it. With 23,000 miles the cobalt has more rattles. Had the MS3 and MS6 not been experienceing turbo problems i probably would have gone that route.

next ride wiill be 370z/evo mr/ft86
