So my VW T5 4-motion has been lifted about 30mm and runs some larger all terrains. It's fairly well known that you'll wear out your CVs a bit faster with the steeper angles they run at.


Over the last few months I've been getting some clicking from the front CVs when turning tight corners and it's typically worse uphill. So it's when the wheel is turned away from the car and the suspension in extension. We've replaced the lower control arm bushes (rooted) but that didn't help. Next we did the CVs and now it's worse than ever. It'll now click driving out of the driveway here (down a slight grade, down the angled gutter then turning on the flat road). It's quiet turning at full lock at the end of the street through... Going up a steep corner it's gone from a click to a harsh knock.


So I'm trying to work out what else there is. The T5s front suspension attaches to the subframe. The subframe attaches to the chassis in four spots. The front and rear engine mounts attach to the sub frame while the right engine and gearbox mount attach to the chassis. The strut top of course is attached to the chassis. See reference pics below.


I chucked the go pro under the car and there is a fair amount of movement between the subframe and the chassis when going up and down the gutter....though I wouldn't think it's enough to cause this. Could be though. Movement at the strut top wouldn't make much difference down at the hub.


What else is there? Combination of worn subframe and engine mount bushes?
