Front End Groaning/Knocking Noise
My 98 2.3CL automatic has been making some very loud groaning/knocking noises under a very specific set of conditions:
- Decelerating from ~60 to 50 mph (foot is off of the gas and brake), but only if the steering wheel is straight or to the right
- Making a hard right turn with foot off the gas (like a horseshoe exit from the expressway
- Giving a good amount of gas in Reverse (both when the car is moving in Reverse, or when I rev the engine in Reverse with the brakes applied and the car is not moving)

Doesn't sound like a motor mount, sounds like a bushing or ball joint, or it could be your cv joint going bad
