Thread: Rattling noise?

I hear this rattling noise emitting from the driver side of the car. going over bump road you hear it. Im not sure if it the control arm bushings tho they need to be changed since the car has 140K on it. Anyone else have the same noise and know what the hell it is?

I have the same problem. Is your abs light on in your gauge cluster?

Nope ABS light is off, I did have that problem tho when I bought the car. Turns out the last guy who had it changed the axel and didn't put a ABS one back in so the light was on all the time. I think I found the rattling noise, It might be front A-Arm bushings and I haven't got around to getting them replaced yet since I just bought them.

Sounds like strut mounts.. Is the sound coming from up high or at the wheel?

Low by the clutch pedal.

I need to fix my abs. O.o but as for the rattling issue, I'm just going to get a while bushing kit so I don't have to worry about it.

same problem here, just change all four struts with struts mounts. still rattle persists. i might have to change all tie rods both inner n outers. i have a hunch that its the inner tie rods

Check the rear mount on the drivers side control arm, I had a rattle that sounded like it was coming from that area and thats what it turned out to be.

Check your sway bar bushings and links . If you can disconect the links and test drive to see if the noise is eleminate . If your running a progress sway bar it has heim joint links and wear out making a "clanging " noise over bumps . Then also check your ball joints . Preloaded and non preloaded by placing a floor jack under the control arm . You can also check the control arm bushings the same way .GL .

just checked. sway bar bushings and bad motor mounts is my problem.
