VX commodore ; When driving approx 60 Km per hour a loud bang occurs in the vacinity of the left front wheel, and it feels like the left wheel momentarily pauses,
Have recently replaced brakes and hubs any ideas machined rotors, Mechanic has checked car many time cant find the problem.

It is a very loud band, thumping sound like you hit something, happens once, then dont hear it for some time then out of the blue BANG, like days apart. it has happen like 5 time in as many weeks.

It is scary, the wife freaks out, didnt understand what she was on about until it happened to me and believe me it scared me 2.

Any ideas?????????

Maybe wheel weights hitting the caliper? Don't know why it would happen so randomly though.

Is there any difference of the cars momentum or a shudder os something?
Or just the noise?
