Mechanical Question
 
My P5 left wheel wobbles when i drive, so i thought it was the ball joint that was causing that to happen, so i replaced it. but once i did that the wobbling didnt stop. after changing the ball joint (which i thought was the problem) my wheel still wobbles? is it the axel thats loose? or the wheel barring? also when i brake i hear a horrible noise like my brake is going to brake and its all coming for the left side. help please, thank you

This sounds like the lug nuts are loose but I assume that has been checked if you replaced the ball joints. How many miles?

Do you feel the wobble or see it? Try jacking the front wheels off the ground and rocking the wheel/tire back and forth to see if there is any looseness felt. If so, look to see where it is from. While you are there check the brakes to see if there is any brake pad lining left or has gone metal to metal with the rotor. Just a matter of visually inspecting the left front suspension and brakes to determine the problems and what needs to be done to fix.
