tsb 05-9-11, have a new strut bearing and spring isolator installed under warranty.

I just took mine in to have this serviced. The parts are on a long backorder, I guess due to the large amount of 05's having the problem.

Popping

Per Ford TSB rec'd 04.09.05: 304000 Chassis suspension system

Special service messages 18461 2005 Mustang popping noise, front of vehicle on turns. 2005 Mustang vehicles may exhibit a popping noise coming from the front of the vehicle in turns. Verify that nosie is coming from the strut bearing or spring with chassis ears. Engineering is currently investigating. No repairs should be attempted at this time. monitor oasis for updates. Effective 03.10.2005

Mine started when I had less than 1,000 miles. That is why I took it in. I suspect modifications would depend on what if any extended warranty was purchased with the vehicle. I'm going to keep what's there for now and see what Ford's answer will be.
