Please help me guys, I'm hearing this "klanking" noise from what sounds like my tire. It sounds like it's coming from my suspension not from my engine. Any ideas on what it could be? I can only hear it when i'm going slow and hit a small bump or when i'm going slow and I start braking. Please help guys! I know I didn't provide you with much info but If you have any questions feel free to ask. -Thanks In Advance

Sounds like it could be a loose shock cover, do you have aftermarket suspension?

My whole suspension is stock. I'm so confused as to what it could be.

My friend has KYB Adj. on a 96GT and it is making a noise very similar to what you are describing. Metal clunk over small holes and the such. He took it to Brad's in Seattle and among other things on his ride, that was one of them.

Another thing to look at is your brake rotor dust cover. It's a half moon shaped plate located right behind your rotor. Mine had a rivot break and it made that kind of noise over bumps and stuff.

I see in your signature that it's a 2003. Is there still a warrantee on it? If there is I'd rather have the dealer look at it rather than sweating about it.
