my rear end clunks on neary every pot hole small and unavodible road imperfections is this a whear and tear thing or do i need to have it looked at if. i saw a thread with some talk about an ati clunk kit for the msp (i have a 02 LX 2.0) is this avilible to me if not are there other options for me?
do i have a rear sway bar in the lx? I havent realy looked i just asumed ther wasnt a rear. I have 117k it probubly started 20k ago. i havent had to do any real maintnace to front or back suspention. who offers the links at resonable price? moog has nothing butt tie rod ends.
Hardrace has reinforced endlinks available (same design as stock.. dunno how much stronger or how much longer they may ask) for $55CAD PST/GST included for all four
I have just under 8k, got my 3 back in April, and the clunk started last week. Is it even worth going back to the dealer and saying fix this (got the 100k warranty) or is the replacement going to suck as well?
If you have a clunk on a Mazda3 that's something totally different. The 3 has a way more simple rear suspension layout and I haven't heard of anyone with clunk on a 3. Take it in and see what they say about it
That would probably be why I can't really find anything. I'm no stranger to this kinda stuff, I used to have a Jetta and they had quite a few known issues, windows dropping into the door is a fun one.
Although the dealership already knows my name and well because I wanted my Sirius and my aux jack to work and there's a part thats like $500 including installation. Should be good times.
A lot of the new MS3s are having clunk issues due to loose swaybar mounting--it's a quick dealer fix. First model year issues. Maybe an issue with regular 3s also...?
well took for ever but im back clunk is gone with the adition of some moog front yes front sway bar links. the old ones wher comepletly trashed the joints where like my gramothers nees before the wher to replacesed loose and wobly and both boots where split on each one.
Hey All, OEM Sway bar ends are 14mm, they are way to small with the handling of this car. Mine were shot after 30k. I installed Moog 22mm sway bar ends with greeae fittings. Wish I knew before I replaced all rotors and brake pads, springs and struts. Live and learn. All fixed now, my car is uber flat though turns at speed now.
