need help diagnosing a noise (wheel area)
hi,
i was hoping someone hadsome insight here. the noise is like a metal rattle / clunk sound when i go over a bad spot in the road, seems to be in the passenger rear wheel area.
could this be a strut? strut mount and / or bearing? car only has 18,000 miles, but roads here are bad in most areas.
dealer cant find anything wrong (of course not, its under warranty)
please help!
thanks!

I doubt if it is the strut itself, but the mount/bearing is a possibility. It could also be the exhaust system. Both of those possibilities can be hard to diagnose.
Sometimes you have to wait for it to get worse before it can be found.

Im guessing you have a 7th gen since you mentioned being under warranty? Ifo so, youd have to post here: http://forums.maxima.org/7th-generation-maxima-2009-78/
