try superPro..using it at my civic for almost 1 years more..stil ok..cost me around 1k for all front bushes..:cry_smile: ...labor cost is around rm10-15 per bush..durability i think can tahan at least 3 years..but for upper arm bush..try
using oem 1 coz it is really fking hard to install..my mech almost spend half day to install only 4 bushes...:emoticon_U: rugi...

Exactly, I also have my steering rack replaced before I replaced all the bush. It does reduce lots of funky noise.

Ya, patpaty. The sound most probaly come from steering rack. My car got the sound also. After changing sterring rack, the sound dissapeared. My mech told me most SO4 car their steering rack very "manja", not like EG which can last longer. He also told me better replace a singapore one.

I had changed:

Front lower arm bush (small) x 2
Front lower arm bush (big) x 2
Front lower arm bush (big) x 2
Rear lower arm bush (big) x 2
Rear lower arm bush (small) x 6
Rear arm (long) x 2
Anti-roll bar bush x 2

Front upper arm x 2
Front lower arm ball joint x 2
Tie rod end x 2
Anti roll bar link rod x 2
PU Drive shaft boot (inner) x 2
PU Drive shaft boot (outer) x 2
PU Steering boot cover x 2
Auto transmission fluid (4L)

But sadly still "dhing dhong x2" sound.
The mechanic suspect Steering Rack. Is there still any possibility ?

Woh after changing almost everthing still cannot get to the root of your problem problem. Your Kluk Kluk sound problem really cost you a boom.

You should go to a reputable alignment shop or tuner to check your problem before spending all this unneccessary cost.
You should also explain when the sound comes in(turning, uneven surface), estimate fault location (left, right, upper or lower section). Does your alignment runs after adjusting? This will make the dignostic easier.
FYI steerign rack will not make that kind of noise, it is "other" parts that caused that particular sound.

Hell yeah ....

The thing was perfect on the first few months after the replacement but recently this sound come back again. The alignment is perfect. Nothing wrong but when I m slow and on uneven road, car park and when turning steering and brake .... the sound appear mostly is when stop
and go.

Go to a reputable guy opposite GT auto in sunway, Kian Long motorsport look for Ah Lun,
he does a lot of race cars and has solve a lot of problem for our track cars.

Klok Klok sound usually mean ball joint, upper arm lower arm, tie rod end ans so on.
also possible tie-rod itself. don;t second guess and go have it solve

Meaning is because of bad workmanship since i already change most of things.
unless the shop cheat me.
Will go for second opinion for sure. I m not sure the Kian Long is it the one i went. They are quite pricy.

No such thing as pricy, if problem solve money well spent.
