Loud clunk from rear and front suspension
Hey guys,
It's been really cold here for a while in Michigan, and lately when I've been driving my Speed 3, I've been getting a really loud clunk from the front and rear suspension when I go over even little bumps with it. After about 30-45 minutes of driving, it stops. I thought at first it was just the shocks because they're cold, but none of the other cars we have around my house do things like this.
Any possible ideas? I've already had the rear stabilizer bar replaced once, and the car is definitely going in early tomorrow to resolve the issue.

RE: Loud clunk from rear and front suspension
From a friend who owns a Speed3, he claims that the suspension bushings on his car need replacement ever 25,000 miles or so due to the same reason. That said, he flogs his car on the track very often as he is a part-time instructor.

RE: Loud clunk from rear and front suspension
due to the cold, it makes the suspension stiffer and its needs to warm up. does it go away after like 20 mins of driving? because thats all it is. you can go to mazda and check it out tho
