Over the last couple of months my car has had a rattling noise when i am turning either way. It also rattles when going over speed bumps,and pot holes. The rattling has gotten progressively worst. I would like to know what the problem might be and what i can expect to pay for repair.

Hello .. thanks for the donation .. much appreciated

This sounds like a CV joint is worn on one of your drive axles ... you have 2 joints on both sides .. so it could be any of the 4 that are worn .. it would have to be inspected to determine this .. I only have a price for the 2 inner joints and they are $265 each from a dealer .. you may get these cheaper .. and the book repair time is 1 1/2 hours @ shop labor charge usually around $70 per hour ... hope this helps .. let me know
