Knock, Thud, Traction Control, Confusion...
Ok, so hopefully so one can at least point me in a direction.
I've had a problem for a while now, when I turn my steering wheel any direction, I hear a clicking noise. My intial thought was drive axle. Sounded to be coming from more of the right side then the left, so I replaced the right. Still makes the darn noise. Now, on top of it, when I'm turning my steering wheel hard, at a very low rate of speed, it clicks, I hear/feel a thud, and my traction control light pops on for a couple seconds... It's happened three of four times to me in the past week or so, and no matter how loud I turn up the radio, I still feel the thud and see the traction control, so I figure it's time to fix it.
Anyone have any idea's?

im not sure you shuold probably have your front end check though, usually if you get a check a shop will do it for free. how many miles on the current struts and other front end parts?

I have around 85000 miles. 30 of those are from me. I haven't replaced the struts or anything, and I doubt the previous owner did. That's something I will look into.
I know that the chevy dealership down the street from me charges 90 dollars just to look at your car.

It sure does sound like an ISS probelm. Maybe this site might could help with the repairs.

If it is the ISS, this is how we "fixed" mine http://www.naioa.com/v2/modules.php?...wtopic&t=10805
Just wonder if the ISS can affect the trac control or if it's unrelated or if it even is the ISS. The ISS can be felt/heard in the brake pedal and steering wheel and usually cannot be heard/felt from the passenger side or at least that's how it was in my case. Ask someone riding with you if they can hear it too.
