Odd sound.

[MonteCarloChick]

Ok, so I just had all 4 struts and mounts put onto my car. Great. When I go to drive it back home I notice a sort of simmering bacon sound coming from my car as I drive. The simmering sound is rhythmic to the motion of my tires rotating as I drive. I don't hear it above 45mph. If I didn't have my Flowmaster on, it would be deafening. And it's quite embarrassing sounding.

 

I really don't know how else to explain the sound better, so I hope that's adequate.

 

 

Also, I just got back from my alignment appointment and the told me I needed a new front tie rod. So I'm back home because I didn't have enough money for both. So I'm going back later for the alignment. Could the fucked alignment be making a sound? I don't know. I'm sick of working on this stupid car. Help

yeah, its an issue with the alignment

But I had an alignment problem before I got the strut assy's done and it didn't make a sound. Did they cause the sound?

Anytime you do suspension work, your alignment gets farther off.. Don't feel bad, my Cutty makes the same noise up front, but since I had my exhaust done, I can't hear it

Gah! Thanks.
