So, had the car up on jacks today, wheels free of road. Pulled and pushed at everything to do with suspension/steering. Only thing I can find is the drivers sway bar link has some play in the bottom connection, about 1/32 I'd say, whereas the top and the passenger side one are tight. Springs look new (still have tags on), and nothing is loose there....I've had the car about 8 months, and this noise seems to be getting worse.
Clunking 'sounds' like it's coming from just under my feet, so I thought 'anti-roll/sway bar' (whatever you want to call it) but I can't move it at all, even with a steel bar and torqueing (sp) it.
Is it better to check this sort of thing with weight on the wheels? I could buy some ramps I guess.
The noise happens whenever I hit a little bump in the road...so it's most of the time lol :D (I live in MTL).
Thanks for any advise.
