Default RE: 2007 Front Suspension Thunking Noise

Well, third trip to the dealer in 2 years for the front end clunk. First time they replaced the strut bushings, fixed it for a few months. Second time they replaced the struts, fixed it for a while longer. Today they retorqued the sway bar. Took care of the noise at least for the moment.

This is my third Mustang GT 83 88 & 06, they all sounded like that over small bumps at low speed. I think its the strut design.

I said it before and I'll say it again. I installed tokico D-Spec struts and eibach pro-kits a couple months ago on my '06 GT, and haven't heard the noise since.

I think you are right. I would like to try for the QA1 aluminum. They are adjustable. Are the Tokico?

I have an 06 with the Saleen suspension (springs, shocks, struts, front sway bar, etc...)

Just over 8000 miles and just within the past month have I started to notice this noise - didn't do it before.

So I don't think it is the struts......

but they replaced yours with the same strut design!

Does everyone complaining about this noise have the same rims?
