Hi,
I have a 99 Contour SE Zetec. I am getting a clicking noise from what sounds like the front drivers side wheel area.
I was first hearing the noise (at low speeds, unless i just can't hear it at higher speeds)when turning now it seems to do it driving straight also.
I read somewhere that it could be the CV joint. I checked the boots and they all look good.
Here is an example of the sound. Sometimes it is constant like click, click, click. Other times it has a slight pause like click pause, click pause, etc. About a 1 sec pause between clicks when going slow. As if it clicking at a certain part of the rotation.
1.Any easy way of checking this to see if this is the problem somehow?
2. Could it possibly be something else as well?
3. If it is the CV joint, how difficult is it to repair? and if i just let it go, could i possibly do some more damage?
Any help would be great!
Thanks
