94 Silhouette Wheel Knock
Hello,
I have a 94 Oldsmobile Silhouette and I have been having this terrible knock on my front driver’s side wheel and haven’t been able to find much problem from visually checking out parts that generally might cause this problem. It does seem to happen at almost all speeds above 10 or 15 and seems as if the wheel is wobbling left to right not up to down. Any ideas or suggestions on what to do that might help me find the problem would be awesome. Can share pictures of behind and around the wheel here soon when I go outside to take a look at it once again.

Welcome to the site. Sounds like wheel bearings or something in your front suspension by your description. If you do not have the skills to troubleshoot or repair, take it to a mechanic you trust, sounds like a serious issue. You can jack it up and see if the wheels have play by gripping the tire from top and bottom and wiggling it. You can also grip the tire from the sides and wiggle to see if its in the steering.
