Default even though it's only on the driver side?

i figured it was more since it only occuredwhen susp. is compressed....imagined sway bar noise wouldn't be intermittent, but this noise is more of a once it's on noise, it'll stay on until susp. returns to normal height.

Default If you've had the car in the air (tires/wheels)......

it seems to take a few weeks to get the 'twist' out.

Physics rules, but this one boggles my mind!

Default I have the same problem.. but in right front. ...

i thought it was a spring/shock problem, but when i got my bilsteins and eibachs installed, it didnt go away.

I only hear it when going over speedbumps kinda fast or big dips.

I wish i knew how to fix it =/

Check the swaybar bushings... they are a prime suspect for lubrication
