      Hey thanks for the responses guy, I’ll take a look at them, but does any of the mounts only affect dampening when that power shifts from R-D (I cycled through P-R, P-R-N yesterday and didn’t hear any sort of noise at all) or ONLY when applying brake and the force shifts from <<< to <<<<>stop?

      As I said, I’ll take a look at them and I suppose beginning with the one closest to the steering linkage considering a SOMETIMES feel it in the steering wheel.

      Quick update, taking a look on YT, it appears there’s only 3 engine mounts and they are all on the passenger side?

        Thanks for the reply Eric and Emphasis. So out of the outer tie rod, c/v, bearing and control arm that my mechanic said was needed to “fix” the problem it was… tie rod. That’s EXACTLY why (as Eric says) people don’t trust mechanics. You take a $30 part/fix and turn it into a $1,000 job. None of it was “recommended” work, his mechanics came back into the lobby and listed all of those off to him on what needed to be fixed.

        Needless to say we replaced both tie rod ends, and outside of the sloppiness on the drive home as soon as I got an alignment everything was amazing. There’s no noise/feeling at all now, with any type of driving/terrain.

            Also, don’t know why but none of the videos you posted work. I can’t even see them for some reason.

                So then, if as your saying the bearing would make a noise at any speed any direction it’s not/can’t be the bearing? It’s literally ONLY when turning right, and 0-30 is no noise, 30-40 is some noise/vibration depending on the radius of the right turn, and 40+ is noise/vibration with the slightest right turn of the wheel.
