As the subject states I am getting a really bad clunking noise from the rear of my car everytime I drive over a bump in the road. I made an appointment with my dealer but they can not get it in right away, and I do not want to drive it very often incase it is causeing serious damage. Any help is needed! I did check the obvoius like a loose spair tire, jack, etc.... [/u]

 

Have you done ANYTHING to the car recently? Front or rear?

 

Theres another thread on here with a guy who had a bad clunking sound over bumps and it was a loose rear sway bar. Did you change your sway bar recently? Might want to check that first.

 

haha yeh that was me, just check all your bolts and stuff if you've done any suspension mods

 

I have hotchkis sways and that was also one of the first things I checked.

 

so it turned out to be the sway?

 

yeh it was the sway

 

Talk about worrying about something that is not much! After takeing apart the entire rear interior for a second time I finally discovered the problem when I was reinstalling the factory sub and heard the familiar clunk. After pulling the cover off the sub, some how with the crappy factory sub I was able to pull out all 8 of the screws holding the sub into the box. That bazooka sub is one of the most poorly designd things I have ever seen. Any how, thanks for the help and ideas!!!

 

i have given up on my clunking noise, even the toyota shop can't find it.
