Replying to: allenford (Mar 18, 2008 9:24 am) I had the same problem with my 06 Uplander. They eventually replaced the intermediate steering shaft this fixed the clunking when turning the wheel. The clunking I also had at low speed over the smallest bumps. I asked one of the service tech not the service manager and he took a look and replaced both trailing link arms on the front end. this was at 21000 miles so far nothing else Replies to this message: skywalk27 (Apr 23, 2008 8:46 am) allenford (Apr 23, 2008 2:01 pm)
#10 of 17 noise in front end by bazzyboy Apr 19, 2008 (6:35 pm)
allenford, i just finished repairing my 2006 uplander ls this morning. i had the same problem (i think) at low speeds or uneven ground or anything that would make the car rock side to side i kept hearing a clicking noise coming from the front end. By yesterday i have had enough of that crap i crawled underneath while my wife rocked the car from side to side finally i found the problem it was the linkage that connects the anti sway bar to the strut (look for a single bar that runs par ell to the strut) to take that linkage off your going to need a allen wrench and a 15mm opened wrench and a lot of pb blaster if you live in the northern states i paid $36.00 kinda hard to take off easy to put on now the car goes down the road just fine no problems Replies to this message: allenford (Apr 22, 2008 12:40 pm)

Replying to: scotty48 (Apr 19, 2008 12:18 pm) Both of those repairs were also done to my vehicle along with replacing the rack and pinion, the CV boots, and relubing the steering shaft twice. The problem would stop for about 3,000 to 4,000 miles and then return. This van has been a nightmare! Replies to this message: allenford (Apr 23, 2008 2:01 pm)

Replying to: skywalk27 (Apr 09, 2008 8:34 pm) Went through the same noise. My husband however is a mechanic. It is a tie rod ends..... the warrenty will cover it and they need to replace BOTH of them. Replies to this message: 1234zoom (Oct 16, 2008 12:15 pm)

Replying to: amitchell34601 (Sep 08, 2008 11:07 am) I wish I had seen this. I have a 2006 uplander and have the same problem.They changed Intermediate Shaft steering column , rack & pinion , and power steering pump. It cost a lot. I hope this will solve it for good.
