Hey guys, I'm still a noob with all this mechanical stuff. Anyway, I have a horrible clicking noise coming from what seems to be right under the driver's passenger side. :evil: The clicking noise usually appears when I'm turning while accelerating. Any ideas as to what it could be? Thanks!

sounds like it may be a cv axle. turn your wheel all the way to the right and stick your head under the wheel well and look to see if the axle boot is ripped.
If it is, they are rebuildable but when they are clicking its already too late and you would probably need a new axle assembly

Yeah, I had both of my CV axles replaced when I had my transmission completely rebuilt. :( I think they didn't really care about my alignment when they put it in, so now I gotta take it back somewhere to get my alignment fixed. Ugh.

Sounds like a CV axle.
wheel bearings are a possibility.
Could be struts as well.

So I took my car in again to get an alignment done (and get my resonator replaced). And it's a little smoother driving, but still, when I turn and accelerate my car is very twitchy... any ideas? I just had my axles replaced...

"twitchy" isn't very descriptive

Yeah, twitchy could be a bad tire, to - anything. Any more details?
