Hi name is Jason we have owned this Chevy for a little over a year in a half , its got a 3.4 and is 2 wheel drive with 140,000 miles on it, its my wifes daily driver, so when something not right she lets me know. Sh e took me out to identify the issues. This is what we found upon starting, not everytime, sometimes just at a idle it backfires 3 pop,pop,pop, she says it embarrasses her dropping kids off at school. Then when she turns right there is a creeking sound, that i believe is cv joint but dont know how to visually check it. There is a whinning sound at the steering wheel when she turns wheel left to right, its at the steering wheel not power steering pump. This next one reall concerns me she claims after driving to town wich is 12 mile drive she pushes the brakes and it feels like the front end is moving from under her, what could that possible be motor mounts, suspension , please help me diagnose these things, my whole world is in this car at times and dont want anything to happen to them. I would take it in somewhere but im 1 income for 5 of us and cant afford it. Also how can you tell when struts need changed, lots of dips in my town and you can hear that compressing squeaking sound when rollong through a dip. Thank you all in advance.
