Crunching/Clicking noise
When braking to a stop, accelerating from stop, or turning the steering wheel L to R
Possibilities to me seem like
-Steering Rack Bolts
-Subframe Tightness
I've recently had PSS9 CO and a complete MeyleHD CA's installed. Would like to get some input whether the rack bolts need to be fresh ones (apparently stretch type) and the subframe bolts (stretch type as well)
Hoping it's not going to cost me another arm and a leg to get this car figured out. It drives super tight now, just this nagging nosie that's bothering me when I'm leaving the parking lots or just driving around town.
Thanks guys.

Did a reputable shop do the install? IIRC, the control arms need to be installed with the suspension loaded. Just a wild **** guess but we don't have a lot to go on here....
