I have been having a problem with a clunking noise from the right side and left side of car. It happens when I go over bumps. I put new kyb gr 2 struts on with new strut mounts and new rubber spring seats, i also made sure the ends of the springs were wraped with tubing. Did all of this but it still make this noise. Does anybody have any suggestions????

Thanks

ya i kinda have the same prob. like when i go over bumps or sumtimes when i brake and turn theres almost a creeking noise from the from i dunno if its liek that for u .... i took it into the nissan dealership and they said it was the belt that liek runs the a/c and that stuff but its not as bad but its still ther

 

I hear when it go over bumps only. i just can't locate it

 

How do your Front sway bar bushings look? Or your end link bushings?

My sway bar bushings were shot(1/3 of rubber was torn out), and the noise went away when i replaced those. Tho I also replaced the end link bushings as well, but when I removed everything, the sway bar bushings had the most damage/wear.

Now I have some higher pitched clinking in the rear to tackle, which is my lateral link ($70). But I've been just to lazy to take that out (One of the bushings is missing like 50% of rubber). Oh yeah...has anyone seen a polyurethane solution to the rear lateral link? I haven't, but I don't know for sure. Anyone?

 

They are worn a little but not too bad. I'm wondering if it could be control arm bushings? I have about 84k miles.

 

Same problem here...creaking noise when I go over a bump. I'll check all the busihngs. I'm sure everything is pretty dry @ 140k.

 

I had the same problem. I remembered I had flat about two weeks ago. so I said to my self may be the Jack is not secure good, so I went to the trunk and look at my jack, good enough the jack was not seated in place. So I made the necessary adjustment and now that noise is gone. i am not saying you have the same problem, but you should check that......
