Front End Noise on G37xS Coupe
My car makes these popping, clunking noises in the front end when it's warm or hot (80 degrees or higher) outside. When it's less than 80 degrees or so (early in the morning or later at night), it doesn't make the same noises. It happens when I am either going straight or turning. When I drive slowly (about 20 mph or less) and yank the steering wheel slightly left or right, it will induce the noises. Weight also seems to have an effect on the noises. When I'm driving by myself it will occur as I am a light person (around 140 lbs). When there's a heavier person either driving the car or sitting as a passenger, the noises disappear.
I am at a loss as to what is wrong with my car. Is it the suspension? I have Eibach Pro Kit lowering springs on factory shocks for almost 5 years. Or is it the rack and pinion? If anyone has a similar problem and knows what it is, please let me know. Thanks.
Ini the video clip, you can hear the noises clearly around the 1:10 - 1:30 mark.
