Since I bought the car and first started tracking yet, I occasionally would feel a click or what feels almost like something shifting slightly during corner transitions. At my last track day a couple weeks ago, at a very curvy technical course, this "clicking "got worse. I feel it in the steering wheel, and it almost feels as if something is shifting in the steering or suspension.
I had the inner tie rods and the end links replaced last week, and got the car back today. It feels exactly the same… I also had my mechanic go over all suspension components in check torques. Everything was within spec with a couple exceptions that he corrected.
With the car off, ignition on, so that the steering wheel does not lock, I can move it back-and-forth and feel nothing… So I do not think it is in the steering rack itself. Also, with the car static, I can push it side to side, and feel nothing… i'm pretty sure it is in the front of the car, because I feel something in the steering wheel, but I'm not opposed to looking for something in the rear as well… I've done research on the forums here, which led me to the inner tie rod replacement… But again that did not solve it. I am completely stumped.
Appreciate any suggestions or things to check. And I'm headed to Watkins Glen on Sunday and would very much like to have this sorted out.
Thx!
