I have a 99 sentra and i have a noise coming front the front is sounds like it happens with i back up it gets noiser when i back up going left or right. I was just wondering if anyone had anyone idea what it is? i know its really vage info. anything would help thanks.

Check your axles they will make noise when grease leaks out.

ok i'll check the axles and thanks I know its vage info. And the post wasn't clearly stated lol I was in a rush when i wrote it. When i'm going backwards while turning the noise happens but not while going forward.

yeh I had that prob for a while.. I think I still do.. don't hear it as much (or the sound changed) when I switched to coilovers from conventional springs/struts.. sometimes I hear some clicking noises from the front when making certain turns when parking...

ok i'll check the axles and thanks I know its vage info. And the post wasn't clearly stated lol I was in a rush when i wrote it. When i'm going backwards while turning the noise happens but not while going forward.

Oh hmm, still sounds like an axle. Usually turning and clicking means axles haha

I'm not that big of a mechanic but can i live with the problem or should i get it checked out?

I've lived with the "problem" for about 2 years.. I think its getting worse because after driving the car hard on the highway I can't hear a lot of bad stuff coming from front passenger side... also while its rolling I hear lots of squeeky action coming from there...

I believe as long as you don't feel it too much on the steering wheel at most speeds its probably ok? Right? Maybe?

I know for certain that its not leaking because I leave it parked and never see anything left on the ground after I leave.

My bud says maybe its my tie rod bushings.. But to answer your question, it probably won't hurt - and its going to get worse before it gets better.

Well i park my car every night and theres nothing leaking. And i don't feel anything on my wheel. Because i don't have much money. I think i'll just leave it. If something happens while i'm driving so be it sh*t happens lol. but thanks for the info.

my axle boots were shot.. huge slits down them.. i didnt see anyhting leaking
but when i would first drive away.. forward or backward.. i would hear a little bit of slight rubbing sortof. followed by one or two clicks..

id say 2 years went by.. and laast week im driving like 25 minutes away from my home town.. and my axle shattters....

from what im told.. they normally brake in one spot.. thats actually rebuildable.. but i broke the whole bar.. like crazy thick metal...

i was stuck. couldnt get a tow cause of a jewish holiday. so it was stuck over night.. my buddy has a tow truck so that saved me over 100... but then 2 freshhy axles and installed. cost me under 400...


overall.. how long it will withstand has to do wiht how hard you drive the car..
i drive as hard as my nissan will go.. spinning second and chirping third.
torque steer like woah
