"CLUNK" in driver's side front suspension.

[bunny_power]

Ok, last week my car was in the shop because the power steering fitting on the driver's side hose blew off, and now when I'm driving around my parking garage and turn to go up the ramps I get a big CLUNK from the driver's side front wheel area.

This only happens when the car is starting to climb the ramps (ie. only the front driver's side suspension is compressed) and doesn't happen if go onto the ramps leading with the passenger side.

Anybody have any ideas what could be causing this? :shrug:

Exactly which hose blew off and where did it connect to?

The high pressure fitting where the P/S line goes from metal to rubber blew completely off. Lost all hydraulics, and the entire area was coated in P/S fluid.

...if you look under your driver's side just in front of the wheel there are two high pressure lines just to the inside of the wheel well. The one that blew was the one furthest in.

Thanks, I'm going down to the garage to give mine the eye just in case it looks loose.
