Default Clicking problem solved

I have had a clicking problem with my front end for about 6 months now. I was told by a suspension shop that I needed new shocks, spring seats, and some other small items. I took my car to my friend in Monrovia CA who is a Volvo Master tech, and he told me I only needed end links. He saved me $700. His name is Patrick and he is a little eccentric but is an excellent mechanic. let me know if you want his info and I will shot you a PM.

I know I am pimping out lots of shops today but these people were helpful in making my car run better
I hope this is helpful for someone

You would have gotten the same advice on the forum. Glad your up and running.

You live in my city of birth. I attended Banna Elementary which i believe is long gone.

I doubt your friend charged you to look at your car, but next time, let us know what is going on and we could save you a trip.

Thanks! You guys have been more than helpful many times. He also got me a deal on some Meyle HD end-links that really stiffened up the front end. Thanks again guys.
