I have purchased a 08 z at the summer with almost 20k miles. So far i enjoyed the z. But recently, i began to experience a loud noise.

The noise occurs ONLY when im in bumpy roads whether its ruff or soft located at the front passenger side on the bottom. The noise does NOT occur when i turn my steerin wheel only when i hit several bumps and pot holes.

I could not find any threads with problems that i experienced and was hoping for some sugguestion on fixing my noise problem.

 

so.. whats the noise? you kind of left that out man.

 

My fault. Its kind of hard to explain but its definetly not a squeeky noise of a sway link. I would say a rusty sound even though I do not see anying rusty on the front right suspension. Or maybe a bed spring sound. Such as when you have sex in an old bed and you hear the spring noise. Maybe something like that.

 

what u described could be 100 different things. hard to tell when ur on PC

 

Exactly, I would try to make a video but i do not think the video would catch the noise. Ill try it later today after school.

 

First two major things that could easily be wrong. Sway bar end link or lower control ARM bushing.

 

Definately not sway bar endlink since I had an tb that had swaybar link noises that do not sound what I am experiencing.

Lower control Arm bushing? What are the symtops or sounds of a bad lower control arm bushing? I have read several threads talking about a loose bolt somewhere in the suspension area...

 

Hm i cant even attach a music file into the forum. Does anyone know how to insert a m4p music file (iphone 4 voice memo app) into forums?
