Default Dangnabit!!! I took my car in for service today, and asked them to fix the rattle on the right (More

side of my car, and they can't figure out what's causing it! It's very loud, and is noticeably quieter with a passenger...can't figure out for the life of me where it's coming from.

Any ideas?

Default Have you lowered the car at all?

why dont you stand outside the car and have someone bounce it, atleast this way you cal locate where its coming from...given this info youd probably get more help

If its a clicking noise it may be the collar on the suspension shaft may have popped out

Good luck!!

Default I've had more of a squeak/rattle come from my passenger side also

it was actually the glove compartment... could this be what you're hearing? With a passenger the sound will be dampened a bit..
