I feel bad for hijacking http://www.aveoforum.com/forum/f85/2...roblems-11596/ , so I'm creating this thread to continue my ramblings here.

I got the inner tie rods that I left at my friend's place, so I will be going back to the shop this weekend to see if they will be able to install that and if it will resolve the noise issues, or if yet more troubleshooting will be needed.

So far some bushings were changed and while it does seem to lean a bit less while turning, it has not resolved the issue knocking/wobbly crunchy noise coming from the left wheel area. Also, when turning more than just a little, it often has a significant thump/knock sound (turning in either direction).

I'm not sure if an inner tie rod can make all of those symptoms. I guess we'll see after the weekend but I don't really have my hopes up. Any input from you guys will be appreciated!

edit: strut mounts have already been replaced with no effect
same with outer tie rods, ball joints and bearings
