Hello.
I have a have a 2008. When I transition from standing still to moving forward or reverse I hear a clunk coming from the back end of the car. I don't believe it's in the rear end or the drivetrain it sounds more like suspension noise kind of like a rubber bushing has failed. The car has 2100 miles on it so it sits around. Anyone know where I can look for the problem at?

I have a similar noise I've been chasing on my car for the past several weeks. It's most noticeable during a direction change, so like coming to a stop with a very slight roll back before I take off. It's almost a crack/snap sound. I pulled the entire corner of the car apart and didn't find anything obvious. At this point I think it's the halfshaft, though I pulled one side of it apart already (by accident) and nothing really stood out. Was planning to take the whole shaft apart next time and really clean it up good and inspect surfaces to see if something is scored.
