My V6 2002 coup had no problems until last week. I think the universal joint is going. When I make a right turn there is a click sound. Only when I turn the wheel to the right. My friend thinks that it could also be a T-Rod.

My girlfriend has been driving the V6 since last October, so it figures.... :bang:

My V8 has no problems.

could be a tie-rod end.. i'd take it somewhere and have it checked out. an alignment shop should be able to diagnose it the best IMO

the tie-rod end sounds like the culprit

Turns out that there is some sort of sleave that can fall down the springs and click against the t-rod! In order to fix this, they have to take off the struts and stuff! Lucky me for having a full warrenty. B)
