I have a 2004 Santa Fe.
There has been a consistent knocking in the driver-side front of my car for the past 5 or so months. I can’t tell if it’s getting worse or not. It isn’t there at low speeds, but is obvious at high speeds, and it goes away when I turn. It almost sounds like there is a loose wheel, but there is not.
I replaced the steering knuckle in the driver’s side 2 or 3 months ago so it’s not the bearing (a new bearing was part of the knuckle assembly). When doing so I looked at the CV axel which appeared to be fine. My thought at this point is an unbalanced tire, or maybe a warped rotor, or maybe something with the pads? I changed the rear brakes not long ago, but not the fronts, and when I brake, at low speeds, I can kind of feel the pads catching and releasing in the brake pedal.
