hi guys,
i'm new here so how do you do. anyways, i have a '91 e34 m50. currently have 95,000km on the odo. there's this annoying sound as if something metal comes off and back on, more like a 'thud'. i have checked all the ball joints and they all have no play. on regular street driving, there's no sound, its only when i turn the car left towards an incline like a ramp or a bump is when i hear it. it seems to be coming from the passenger front side. if you're wondering if it happens while turning right, nope it doesn't make a sound. i am so in the dark now. hope to hear from you guys. Thanks in advance.

kinda sounds like your sway bar links or the strut collar nut.

thanks, left my car with my mechanic for 3 days which made him go crazy locating where the sound was coming from. to make the long story short, he tightened everything up front including the suspension and amazingly he got rid of it and he still doesn't know which one was right. thanks for the reply and have a great day.
