this is bugging me now. since we had this snow and ice when i brake the car seems to jolt foward slightly as if theres a little play somewhere,andtheres like a weird noise (clanging noise) like somethings giving way,this happens when i brake moderately hard but not to hard
also when i hit a dip or bump in the road and when going over speed bumps theres a loud creaking noise coming from front of car
any ideas

? cheers
