Hi to all!!
In my car when I drive, I can ear some noises from rear side of the car but still can't find what's those noises!
I've already replace right and left shock absorber with new one, and the top of the mount of these, but nothing changed.
I've looked under the car but can't find nothing what cause this noise.
This is a link of my gdrive where you can find a little video with those noises (like "tac tac" or something metallic), maybe someone can help me to solve this issue.

Thanks.

Re: Help with some noises from rear
Are the bolts of the rear shocks tightened properly?

Yes, I have personally checked and tightened them as much as possible.
I had also tried to distance the bolts with washers and I also tried to put in a sponge to cushion the blows but the noise does the same, for this reason I exclude that the shock absorbers are the problem.

Re: Help with some noises from rear
Just a question, when you jack the rear of the car and you put the wheel back on and while tightening the wheel bolt can you see the shock moving thru its travel ( car still on the jack)? This is quite strange to me that they are ao soft

Re: Help with some noises from rear
I can't answer because I personally replaced completely the shock absorber without unmount the wheel.
Anyway there are only 3 bolts for the shock absorber and they are tightened.
I would also add that I only hear these noises when I drive, but if I shake the car from a standstill, nothing is heard.
