Sound when turning

I've noticed that when i accelerate on turns, i hear a thumping type noise from the front. It does not seem to matter the direction of the turn, and does not make the noise when accelerating in a straight line. Also, when braking, there is a noise that sounds similar, although slower. The noise does not seem to be present when accelerating lightly when turning. Any ideas?

I would say check the axles, relatively cheap and easy fix if thats the problem.

I'll check the axle when it warms up some, hopefully it can last another month or so. Thanks for the info.

It could be your motor mount is broken. The engine moving will make a clunk as your engine moves upon accelleration and when braking to a stop. If this is the problem, you may also feel a thump as you stop as the engine sets back into place.

could be a number of things, if it is ur axle ur best bet would be to change the cv boot now if its craked and regrease it cost is about $30 for parts if u decide to wait youd have to buy the axle for about $120 so its really up tp u.
also it could be the wheel bearing, it really depends on the noise, ud have to describe it... is it a click click sound or a clump clump ...lol im not sure if itll make sense but see if u can notice the difference.
