Jeep Noise

Yes, I know that Jeeps making odd noises isn't very Earth-shattering, but the wife's Jeep has started a new and hitherto unheard noise. It happens while coasting and braking, not under acceleration. Kind of a clunking or rattling noise, and I can feel it under my feet when I drive it, so I figure left front. My first thought was the transmission, but somehow I don't think so. Maybe suspension, and the weight transfer under acceleration gets rid of it? I got under it and yanked on control arms and such, with no obvious movement.

Thoughts would be welcomed. Thanks.

Just drive it over the nearest cliff, then call the insurance company. Works every time.

Considering that it seems to be localized at the left front, I think a bad CV is likely the culprit. Why would it be intermittent, though?

That raises a question: do I yank on it length-ways or side-ways? Both?

If there's contaminant inside the boot or it has lost some of its grease packing due to a torn boot, it may be getting lubrication intermittently. If it tends to make more noise when cold, it's probably because the grease is less viscuous when cold and it's not getting where it needs to be at that time (not enough grease inside the joint)

A part is going bad, it hasn't totally failed yet. It will work properly sometimes until it totally breaks.

Would they be able to diagnose a bad CV joint without it making the noise?

The wifes dad has an early 2000 Jeep. Maybe 6 months ago or so he said he could feel a "wobble" during braking. He done some digging around and came up with a problem apparently only Jeeps have. He told me all about it then but, of course, I didnt pay much attention due to the fact I just didn't care

But, if it is just happening during or shortly after braking, it likly is due to this tire issue he was talking about. Its got a name (this tire condition) but I cant remember what its called. But if memory serves, something with the way Jeeps are built wont allow for smaller ply tires (like 4 or 6 ply). I guess they work ok until they start getting a little age on them, but eventually the sidewalls start having this problem.

May not be the same thing, but thought I would throw that out there. Wish I would of paid better attention now.
