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

Evening all, I've a '99 Boxster 2.5 and I've got suspension issues. The standard creaks and groans kicked off a few months ago and I remedied these (or so I thought) with new coffin arms. However, there's a rattle at low speed which is beginning to get on my nerves, especially having thought I'd solved it. Having the car up on some ramps and with a willing assistant to bounce the car up and down, it seems to be coming from the centre, around the area of the ARB. This is why I'm puzzled - there's no obvious bushing, join or anything, really, in that section to cause a creak or a rattle. Any ideas folks?

Possibly drop links and the noise is travelling along the ARB.
