I have a 96 Pontiac Grand Am GT 3.1 and there is now a knock, and sometimes a shake, in my passanger side wheel well. It feels almost as if something is catching. I have checked Hub assembly, rotors and breaks, which all have been replaced in the last 6 months, and all seems to be normal. What could it be?

Check to make sure there isn't excessive play in the CV joints or where the axle meets the transmission. Also, check all steering components such as tie rods, ball joints.
