Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Recently my stereo got ruined so, I have nothing to listen to but, the car. I was driving over bumps in the road (Oklahoma roads) and heard a clicking/rattle from the suspension over bumps. I purposely drove over some rough ground in a parking lot and it pretty much does it at all four corners. Struts? Tierods? The car has 55K miles on it and I haven't touched a bit of that. According to the maintenance records I received with the car, neither had the previous owner. Could someone pin point this rattle? I'm taking my car in this week but, I'd like to know what it is previous to it going to the shop.
