Weird noise from the front drivers side
Last wednesday I took a trip up to my dad's house (2 hour drive from north jersey to pennsylvania) during a snow storm and then back home on saturday. Ever since I got home I've been hearing a weird cracking sound on every other bump i go over. I'm on ISC coilovers with a decent drop and 18x9 wheels. I took off the front wheels on both sides to check the wheels for cracks and to check the coilovers for any damage or loose bolts. Nothing
 any ideas what it could be? Like the titles says it seems to be coming from the drivers side.... Thanks in advance -Dave |

Could it be something in the drivers seat or the rear-view mirror? Try to be more specific in telling exactly where it seems to be coming from, if you can.

Pop the hood and check the bolts that connect your fender to the chassis.

How cold was it when you drove through that snowstorm? My old car had some suspension "creaking" when it was decently cold out (below 25 degrees though). Or maybe some ice built up in some of the nooks down there. Outside of that possibility, like another had suggested, check the bolts under the hood. One may be loose
