Rattling Clanky Sound In Rear Of Car

[bobs turbo pt]

wow sorry it was the springs but at least you know where the noise was coming from

If you can get under it safely, go under and look for scratches or chip marks where the lowered axle was raised toward the body. A light rattle may have been something intermittantly hitting the exhaust, etc. Also sounds like a bolt was left loose and when changed back, all of the stock ones were properly tightened. Too late to check that now. Sorry

hey pt, what did they say to you at the dealership after it was all done??

[ptcruzin42]

They said it was the srpings making sounds....showed me where they rubbed.....told me they had to charge me since it was aftermarket....and sent me on my way. I'm gonna go bug em about the a/c noises now <img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>

when in doubt get the hammer !!

I plan on getting bags, I might start my decline into life by buying them with a credit card. <img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle> I'd love to have bags, none of my friends have bags, I live on a small island, so i'd be the like the only person with em.

As for the a/c there's a small whir under the glove box sounds like a leaf but I don't know how a leaf would've gotten in there. Plus it's intermittent so it'll prolly go away when i get it checked out.
