What side, whats it sound like etc?

Is it there on or off the gas? Turning make it worse? Braking make it worse?

Don't just blindly throw parts.

my cobalt made that same noise, brought it in and it was replaced under warrenty, even tho the service manager said "we know it was caused by your lowering springs but we cant prove it, so your good to go"


Recently i was tasked to gagetown and a guy i was working with has a Cobalt SS and he had the same noise. Him and his father tried to find out what it was for a few months, dealership didnt know what it was either. I told him what it was, he went to the dealership, they checked it, sure enough, it was the end links.

yea thats not always the case, i have the same clunk/ rattle just upgraded to powergrids...still there,

could be the control arm bushings, sway bar bushings,the struts, sturt bearings, intermediate shaft.

i had my intermediate shaft replaced but still there

i went to the dealer they said it was my bearings that were gone....so now im in the process of swapping out everything... tc shocks and struts with pedders springs, fe5 sway bar, fe5 control arms with prs cabs, new strut bearings, well see what happens
