XC90 Front end "Crunch"

    I have an '05 XC90 that has an occassional crunching noise in the front end
    (turning, backing, sometimes braking). Some time ago, the tie rods were
    replaced under a service notice, and the crunch appeared after that. The
    dealer has looked at this about 3 or 4 times, re-torqued some bolts and
    greased up the front end, but the crunch returns after several days. They
    say all is fine, but it seems to me it shouldn't be doing this.

    Has anyone had a similar problem, or any thoughts about what's causing this?

    Thanx in advance.

    I'v had the same on my car for a while now. No other issues than the
    occations "crunch" on right side. We also had the tie rods replaced
    (recall as I remember) and they can't find any problems with is. I
    have learned to live with it but every time it goes to shop I remind
    them to look..

    For me it happens either in a sharp slow turn such as roundabout or
    over a speedbump

    if anyone has more information I'd like to know more about this too.
