I have a 95 with 113,500 miles on the clock. Lately when traveling over bumps in the road, I hear a metallic clicking noise on the passenger side of the car. Sometimes it seems to come from the rear of the car and at other times from the front of the car.
I removed the spare and tightened up the battery clamp. Left the spare out and went for a drive. No luck, the noise is still there. I have yet to see if anything is loose in the trunk area.
I'm not mechanically savvy, so I had my mechanic visually look for the cause, but he indicated that nothing was obvious.
I have Bilstiens on lower perch with OEM springs. I also have H&R 25 mm spacers in place on the rear wheel. Everything else on the suspension is stock. Could a strut or spacer be loose, or a bolt that has been broken be the cause.
Lastly, the distance from the top of the rear right tire to the bottom of the wheel well is approx 1/2 of an inch less than the clearance at the left rear tire. The clearance at both front tires is the same as the rear left tire.
I guess the next step is to have my mechanic start pulling things apart.
Any suggestions before I take this step.
Thanks in advance,
Mario
