Wheel bolts working loose?
#7
It could be a worn out ball joint, the torque setting for these cars is 65 lbf, check your top mounts bolts too as they can come loose if its the ball joint being knackered. Also give the threads a careful tap as dirt inside them can make bolts comes loose, also if wheels are powder coated check where they meet the hub, they crack and peel causing a gap between the wheel and hub. Always remove powder coating where it meets the hub on all powder coated wheels.
