I replaced the cv joints already. What else could be the problem. I just bought a car and I was told that the cv joints needed to be replaced because there was a knocking noise coming from the front left wheel and it happens when u make left turns. Well the replaced the cv joints but it didnt help its still knocking. What else could be the problem?
