    Default Front end rattle...

    hi guys...
    i have tryed everything to fix/find this problem and it is driving me nuts now...

    i have an 06 vz bt1..and when i turn left at all and accel reasonably quik i get a chronic rattle from the front left it sounds like a loose part knocking or something...i have had the car up on stands multiple time trying to see if anything is loose at all...

    nothing seems to be loose and i cant see any rubbing from the tyres on any part of the innergaurd...

    i know its a far shot for any one to know what it is without experiencing it but if any one has any ideas at all let me know before i go crazy

    Thanks...

    maybe your front bushes off the wheel support? .......... the run from the front wheel to the front bottom bar........... they wear on commodores........ my only thoughts really......... other then that, maybe some kind of mount if nothing u see is loose.

    PS. forgive me for my lack of technical terms. I just had my bushes done as when i braked I had a shutter feel .......... which turned out to be those.

    EDIT:

    Other thoughts......... something to do with the sway bar underneath, stut brace bushes? .......... dunno bout the front stockies, but there's another thread on the forums with a similar thing on the back of his car......... and his shockies had metal shields at the top where the weld broke on the sheild of the stocky causing it to rattle.
