Passenger side noise

[Kyle]

Hi all

Just changed both front wishbones and drop links and now I'm hearing a sort of a squeaking noise coming from the passenger side whenever I go over a bump, or when I press the brakes and the car gets lower at the front.

Also, I am hearing some ticking [3-4 ticks in all] when I turn the wheel to the passenger side only. While doing so, if I put my hand on the plastic cover (the one at the top of the suspension assembly in the engine bay) I can very slightly feel the ticking.

The noises can only be heard from the inside of the car.

Any ideas of what it might be? thanks !

forgot to mention that the ticking noise while turning the wheel to the passenger side can be mostly heard when the car is parked.

thatll be your engine cooling down

i'm sure it has nothing to do with the engine.

Sounds like your shock cap (vulcanized rubber with axial bearing) is shot if the noise is coming from under the plastic cap. Take the cap off, just lift it and check again.

Had bad sound from mine, took it to the fiat specialist and he laughed.

The anti roll bar front suspension had no bolts in it, just hanging around in mid air. Where did they go?

Make sure all bolts/screws are present and done up to proper torque settings,

made mine drive a lot better
