When you turn left or right it makes a popping noise that you can hear as well as it jerks the wheel. We have replaced wheel barring on driver side as well as both cv axles on both sides. We have had people telling us that it is the transaxle. Everything else, ball joints, tie rod ends, ect. Are all good and tight so please help me out and figure out what else this may be.

I would be re checking that the drive shafts are ok, and also check that the transmission oil level is ok and correct oil is being used.

We took it today and had the transmission oil checked as well as all other fluids and everything else is good, but it still does it. We had the drive shafts checked again by several people. Everything is tight and good. We have no idea where else to look, especially for a transaxle. No auto part stores carry it.

The noise on turning sounds like a CV joint, damaged wheel bearing or even a loose drive shaft end nut, this is where I would be investagating the problem.
