My ’95 M-edition recently turned over 87k miles. As of late, I’ve been
occasionally hearing a clunk or knock from the front end of the car. It
seems to be from the left side. I think it happens mostly while turning
(especially left?), though I know it’s happened several times while going
straight, and it always seems to be at low speeds. It’s more of a metallic
sound than anything else and I have a sneaking suspicion that it has
something to do with the suspension, though I could be completely incorrect.
I do need new shocks, though the ones on the car aren’t ridiculously lousy.
That said, I don’t know that they ever *seem* that bad on a Miata, even when
they’re well worn.
Anyone have any ideas? I haven’t been in a good position to remove the wheel
yet, but would like to know what I’m looking for while I’m digging around in
there. Thanks in advance.
