Well, maybe I've told this story before, but maybe it will inspire you to
look for something unusual.
My daughter was at college with our well-worn Ford Fairlane wagon, and began
hearing a loud noise on turning a corner. Sort of a clank, clank, clank,
clunk. But it only happened sometimes, and sometimes on a right turn and
sometimes on a left turn. All her "car expert" friends looked here and
there, with all sorts of possible explanations, none of which seemed to
help. Then one day somebody noticed a full beer can on the roof. Seems on
a hard turn, it would roll across the roof, over the luggage pads, and then
against the roof rack. Clank, clank, clank, clunk.
Gotta love college.
