| Description of the problem | Right rear top strut mount became noisy/creaking/thumps) during the winter. 2 weeks ago while driving home we heard excessive noise/creaking/thumping from right rear. While driving to work the next day noise was even louder. Upon inspection i found the shock had dropped through the mount and were wedged in the coil. Temporarily pushed it back up, purchased a new mount from dealer which was installed. Old mount, aluminum), had completely deteriorated. Now the left side was getting louder. Will replace before shock damage as well. *ak |
