Noise from left rear on hard right corner

[nsx-tech]

Have a bang or thump coming from what appears to be the left rear when turning hard right and sometimes the same noise when turning left. Never does it when going straight. Doesn't do it all the time. Suspension is tight. Any tips??

Could be bad shocks. Mine sounds the same. Will replace once the new shocks are declared.

First thing I thought of was sway bar mounting problems.
Hard to hear/diagnose a noise without hearing it.

Anything loose or rolling around in the trunk?

every thing is tight and nothis in the trunk. The more I think about the type of noise it is it just may be the shock.

You may want to check the rubber muffler hangers. Had the same symptom and found the rubber hanger came off the upper muffler hanger. The muffler was hitting the frame during turns.

Do you know if they are the original shocks or what brand they are?

 

[nsx-tech]

they are factory shocks.

put the nsx on a drive on hoist the other day andloosend the bolt for the left rear toe link and the lower control arm and re-torqued them and it seams my noise may be gone. I've driven around the same over pass several times now and no noise. I hope its gone.
