Question:
I have a 1997 Ford Escort and when ever I turn right or the right side goes over some bumps there is alot of clunking sounds. I'm thinking that the front strut is bad, am I correct or could it be something else?

Could be about anything in the suspension system. Could be a shock, strut, etc. or something like a CV joint or even a tie rod. I would get it checked out because it could be something potentially dangerous.Car--Warm air while turning on the AC/AIR?
This car is a front-wheel drive vehicle, and the noise you are hearing is probably coming from your drive axles. Check the boot/cv joint area of the axles, are the rubber boots torn, leaking grease, if so, then this is most likely your problem. Most axles cost about $55.00-$65.00 dollars exchange and can be purchased at most auto part stores. Good Luck.Front brakes on a 1991 Mercedes Bens 190E 2.6?
Either the McPherson strut "isolator" bearing at the top of the strut or the strut itself could have play in it. A strong techician should be able to lift the car about 2 feet off the ground on the garage lift and manually lift up and down under the tire with the hood up. You'll actually see movement in the top of the strut tower where the nut is tightened to hold it. It could also be your front sway bar bushings or lower suspension arm play etc. If it turns out to be the strut, make sure they replace the strut isolator bearings along with the new struts.If the car is front wheel drive the noise may be due to the worn out ball bearings of the front axle if it occurs on just by turning to right and it occurs while driving on the bumps it can be due to the worn out shock absorbers.
