There is an anoying rattle everytime right rear wheel hits even a little bump. I have jacked it up and can't find any play in wheel, strut, or
other stufff around it. All suspension bolts, wheel studs tight, I have riden in trunk and sound is from below, i felt no movement at top of strut. Sound doesn't sound bad from
outside car as wheel rolls over 2x4, but inside you think wheel is loose and
going to fall off. I don't see how it could be strut, but what else?
check the upper strut mount ASAP look in your trunk and see if its sticking up and though
upper mount is okay, took it off, nut to strut was tight, no broken plastic, bolts to body tight,
plastic shock piston cover rear (its black) and will rattle to all holy heck! mind did until i replaced it
yeah, my piston cover was broken off mine too. Since the struts are beat on my car I just cut it off with a dremel.
new strut mount did it, couldn't see anything wrong with old one.

I am in the melbourne/palm bay area. Always nice to know there are other tgp owners in florida. wish there I see other tgp's now and then around here, but guess they don't post on this board.
i replaced my front shocks finally sunday and OMG both units were totally blown out! what a difference in the ride now! whats cool is you got coilovers but don't need a spring compressor to remove the shock.
