Bushings problems after replaced as per TSB
Its been about 2 months since the TSB has been done regarding the front "old matress spring" sound" and cracked bushings. I noticed the last couple of days the sound is coming back, especially in the morning when first driving and it is getting worse. Any thoughts????

Mines do the same. I supposely got the front suspension replaced after the bushings
But it still make the noise in the morning. I am tired of taking my car to the dealer right now so I didnt even bother to mention it a third time. Just want to enjoy the car.

I have the same feeling, I will just deal with it while car is warming up, b/c it really doesn't make a sound after 5-10 minutes of around the town driving. Life is too short lol.

Same deal with me. It was replaced last month by the dealer but it still makes that " clump " sound when the car slowly drops onto a lower grade. And yes it happens in the morning, but with spring being here and the weather is warmer, who knows.

I suspect the creaky type sounds may be the air shocks...
since it involves more true movement. I associate the bushings more with clunking if they get quite worn. Weather/air temp does sem to affect this some too. But, hard to tell for sure.
