the knocking is a broken piston rod or piston ring broke it will be from $550-$1k to have it replaced. u need to have it checked out ASAP
Most likely you need a new strut
Start from the left.
It depends on the kind of knocking.... I have had 2 vehicles with knocking. 1 was related to the heating system or ignition andould quit shortly after starting the car. The other vehicle which was a toyota 4 runner was in the engine. It also depends on how loud the knocking. May not be helpful but look into it.
possibly hitting the front bumper
That sounds like a broken or loose strut assembly.
A knocking/clicking noise when making a turn is a sign of a torn CV boot. In this case it's the driver side boot that is torn.
replace rotors, sounds like they are warped. if you can feel the pulsation in brake pedal they could be warped..
These engines are real bad about slinging a rod through the side of the block.It will come out either behind the A/C compressor or the starter motor.
Check for a worn or warped break rotor on the front driver side. You may need to replace the break pads and rotor.
u knocking on it
My 2000 Grand Prix would have a low-speed knocking noise coming from the drivers side as the CV axle was failing. The loss of lubrication in the CV Boots allows the joint to make a knocking/tapping sound at a low speed. If the knocking is coming from the engine compartment, then it could be an entirely different problem.
It's the spirit of the car knocking on the side saying "HELLO??? TAKE ME TO A MECHANIC!"
