Suspension noise

hello people. My Kyb Gr-2 with maxspeed was making noise for almost a month now. They were like 4 years old. It's making bumping noise only when i drove by those uneven road or bumpy road. When i was running of the bumps, it's normal. Could it be the strut mount was worned out?

please advise! Thanks!

Its either the strut mount or the struts themselves. You bought the struts used?

OIC...if you have your old struts re-install the old one on the side you are getting noise and see if that changes anything. If it does, then your new strut is faulty, if it doesn't then its your top mount.
