Hey guys,

The front end on my Saleen can clatter somewhat on roads that are a little rough. It especially clatters when the roads are wet. My car only has 70K miles on it...!!!??? Any help would be appreciated. I don't feel any looseness or vibration, just hear the clattering


Thanks,

Dale

Can you describe the sound better? Metallic clatter? Thunking clatter? Flapping sound? Engine Clatter? Any other associated events, Rain + Bumps + Turning Maybe?

Thanks

It seems like between a clunking and a flapping clatter. Today is was raining alot here in San Antonio and it was clatteing big time....It seems that it happens alot more when it is raining. Its like that there is something loose, and when it goes over roads that are just a little rough it makes the noise. But get this, it does not vibrarte, or pull or have any abnormal wear that I can see.I know it is in the front end though...

i would say to check your anti roll bar bushes, but they sound more like a "clunk"...
