front end clunk

hey everytone just wondering if anyone expereinceed the same problem as me..well putting about 5k on my car so far.. it seems today my car has a "clunk" coming from the front.. i seem to hear it when i take off my a stop (as im starting to load the car) starting to accelerate.. its just a single "clunk".. another thing is that i just installed a turboback exahust a couple of days ago, maybe my d-pipe is hitting something? is it common for a d-pipe to to hit anything around that area? as when i installed it cleared the oil pan and lower tie bars!


hmmmmmmmmmm

I think this is pretty comman, search around there is another big post about it. Mine had gone away but came back today, I am wondering if it is related to the warmer temps?

Same thing here. It comes and goes, but I have yet to really keep track of the circmstances that I hear it. I think its just something in the suspension. Ask any of the STi owners if thier suspension makes noise HAHAH!

I get so many noises that come from so many places in my car at so many different times... I swear my car is just trying to **** with my head... or that it's falling apart...which could also be a possiblity.

I really do not have any other noises from my car, all in all I am pretty happy with my Evo.

i think the only clunk that i hear is after i wash the car since youre rotors oxidizes after getting wet with water.so when you get from park the pad lets go and makes clunk but goes away after driving the car.

I have had that happen and this noise is not from that happening.
