gld98682 Posted August 27, 2004 Share Posted August 27, 2004 Lexus dealer and an independent specialist diagnosed the clunk noise when going over wide rolling speed bumps etc, as bad strut mounts. I had the independent shop replace both front mounts and struts with factory parts, and the noise remained. The shop then replaced the mounts again, and the noise remained. The shop then replaced the upper and lower spring insulators, and the noise remained. Finally, the tech drove the car with the stabilizer bar unconnected, and the noise remained. Any ideas what he is missing??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steviej Posted August 28, 2004 Share Posted August 28, 2004 how bout the struts themselves, either both or just one. steviej Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gld98682 Posted August 28, 2004 Author Share Posted August 28, 2004 Noise is from both sides. You think both new struts could be defective? Thanks, Gary Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steviej Posted August 28, 2004 Share Posted August 28, 2004 possible, did they replace the strut cartridges or the entire strut assemblies? steviej Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gld98682 Posted August 29, 2004 Author Share Posted August 29, 2004 The shop installed the complete strut assembly... Gary Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
