Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

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.

3 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

I started cheap and replaced up the price range finally each part having little to no improvement.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi all. I’ve been playing wack-o-mole with suspension noise from my 02-996tt with 36,000km. Noises occur over small bumps and cracks in the pavement. First it started with left front. I started cheap and replaced up the price range finally each part having little to no improvement. Finally the LCA solved the noise. Then the right side I changed the right LCA first and the noise was solved. Now I am getting an thud and rattle from the rear and sometimes sounds like the front. I’ve inspected and can’t find anything loose. Except for the upper strut mount, every part I replaced looked fine. I’ve tried the pry bar technique on loaded and unloaded components. Is there another technique for testing suspension components? I’m thinking swaybar links but haven’t seen much about them going bad. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

POST 2Original post

my strut mounts made a big difference. that rubber gets old and fails. did you say you haven't done them?

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I changed the front left strut mount. Yes. Big difference. The right side isn’t noisy. Today I found the left rear sway bar link upper bolt/nut was loose. And left front strut bearing wasn’t seated properly. How did that happen? I tightened it but haven’t had a chance to test drive yet. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
