i hear an annoying sound from the rear shocks (from the top, both sides) when i hit light bumps (like rubber pieces squealing), most of the time when its cold outside. I replaced all shocks with kyb gr2s 2 years ago and the problem appeared 1 year ago and its getting worse. I had the strut mounts replaced too (KYB) at that time. I went to the dealer and they told me it was the top plates (is it the same thing as strut mounts?) Anyone has an idea of what could be the problem?

I forgot to mention : the sway bar bushings have been changed recently - the noise comes more from the top of the shock assembly...

i keep getting this clicking sound when i turn my wheel..only occurs when i have my car lowered..when i drive straight its fine..could it be the tightness of the bolt on top of the strut? i need some help?...

check your cv joints....sound like one is on the go....or is already gone

dammit people! use the search button.... alot of the "clunking" in the rear of our celicas is the sway bar bushings.... replace them...they cost $8 a piece and takes less then an hour to do....

liquor, trying going somewhere else other than toyota.... they will bend you over and do you up the bum!....then when you think they are done, they will do it again
