Hi everyone,

I have seen the posts here on the site. However, there does not seem to be an actual answer. A lot of the drivers have the issue it seems and they have theories on how what the real cause is or design flaw. But then they never came back to tell if they found a fix.

My car is an 08 with only 14.5k miles (its 2012 right now) so the car has low miles and really a creampuff. But when I go over bumps I can hear the pop / knock from what sounds like the rear shocks and I would like to get it fixed before it gets worse. I only have 15 more days on my warranty and I would like to direct them a bit rather then get the brush off. Help LOL !!!

Thanks

My 2011 Z has a knock,chuckle sound from the right rear when the wheel drops in a pothole,ripple in the road. Seems worse below fifty degrees. The noise has been there since new .
Everything looks tight, sounds like a bad shock.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.
