I have a rattling noise whenever I hit a bump. I have changed the tension rod bushings, new ball joints, new struts with new rubber spring supports, strut rod mounts, strut bearing and the noise is still there. Aggravated. 1999 q45t

are you sure its not the brake pad/caliper? easy to check by draggin brake simultaneously and see what you get.
by strut rod mount, are you referring to the black piece that sits proud of the body colored strut tower (the one with 3 14mm hex mounting nuts)? those can break inside at the rubber to metal interface. also make sure the center nut under the rubber cap is hand torqued to 40 lb-ft.
