Our Focus started a clunking sound from the right rear earlier this winter, mostly occuring over sharp-edged bumps.
I checked all the suspension bolts for torque, and looked at everything but can't seem to find the source of the problem.
So I'm wondering whether worn out wheel bearings might be the source of the problem. Normally I would expect them to give vibration and noise when failing (like the fronts), but I'm wondering whether the rears start with clunking.
Any help here would be appreciated. Thanks.

Mine did the same thing when winter hit. Since it was new, I brought it in to the dealership. They just said it was probably something to do with the cold and that it wasn't something to worry about
Does a shorty anntena count as a mod??
