Finally going back to the dealership...

So after a short 3k miles since my last visit to the ship i just find it hard to believe nothing is wrong.. The clicking and popping noise ive heard since 500 miles when turning the wheel is now just way to loud and now i can feel it. So after taking forever to turn it back to stock its ready to go.

anyone have an idea of what it can be? im going with differential?

What mods did you have on the car?

What type of driving do you typically do? Do you track the car, autoX or off-road rally?

I've had a similar problem. i have 5000 miles and no mods. I took the car in for a metal on metal sound,when turning,at 4000miles...turned out the front drivers side rotor was scratched on both sides. they replaced pads on both sides and machined the rotor. Now i hear a almost rubbing and quick poping sound in the cabin only. took it in and said it was wheel noise. BS. I'm going to a local shop to get it checked again.
