Hi: My daughter's has a 1990 Saab Turbo. Yesterday she noted that she heard a "helicopter-like" sound (thus the whump, whump, whump) in the front end of her Saab. Sure enough, I just took it for a short ride and it makes a whump, whump, whump sound in right front end. It seems it only make the sound over 25 MPH and it is loud. My immediate thought (and I know nothing about this stuff) is the constant velocity (CV) joint rubber boot is torn and flapping. I tried to see what I could see but couldn't see anything with a quick look. Any thoughts????! thanks Juan
