I have a 2014 MKZ and I love the car. I had the same issue and it was the ride adjustable shocks themselves. I changed both sides and it solved the problem. Car is quiet and runs like new.
Great choice in car Mark! Sorry that you had to go through the same issues mate.
This particular rear end issue has been found and is documented on the very next video. Take a look 😊 : ua-cam.com/video/Zm8mWDPhRbY/v-deo.html
Thanks for your great feedback mate.
I like the way how you figure out things. This vlog is very detailed and I am pretty sure car enthusiast would love to see this. Get a bunch of rest sometimes my friend , you are working too hard. Stay Safe Jay Cee.
I appreciate that! Thanks for the love Ailyn! You're awesome.
I like your tablecloths on your seats. 😂
Lol. Oh yeah. Thanks. Japan all the way 😁😁
Your strut is busted
Sway bar links or maybe bodybushings
I love that car bro... Wish I lived closer, you are a good mechanic! God bless! 🙏🏻
Thanks for the love bro. Yes. It's a sweet ride. Thanks for your kindness.
Unfortunately Jay Cee, I have no idea what the root cause of the noise is. I am waiting for the next video to find out what was wrong. With your driving over railroad tracks and potholes it still feels like a travel video. :-) Now I am starting to wonder how many cars you have. :-) Great video and I hope that more shade tree mechanics subscribe due to your helpful How-To car videos.
Lol. Thanks Ken. Not all cars shown are mine.
Travel Vlog feel huh? I guess that is a good thing. It's always good to do something a little different from the others but still be just as informative. I can dig that.
Thanks for your feedback Ken!
@@JayCeeMax :-)
Am here to compliment you for doing a great job Jay Cee! Hope your having a great week
Thanks you for the compliments Asiana. I'm blessed. Just trying to fix these cars. Thanks for your support.
Jay Cee Max Most welcome😊
Hi..not sure if you found the source, but I had that same noise and it was the shocks. Found out that they are hydraulic and was leaking fluid. Replaced both and the noise was gone. Also, feel your pain with the 2 to 3 shift that's the biggest annoyonce by far with the car other than a few minor quibbles but overall I love it.
Wow. You have the exact same issues as me. Yes. Overall, I still love the car.
This particular rear end issue has been found and is documented on the very next video. Take a look 😊 : ua-cam.com/video/Zm8mWDPhRbY/v-deo.html
Thanks for your feedback mate.
Still same thing have sound. Nice car vlogging, you deliver your speech well JCM.
Thanks Dai! I appreciate it.
@@JayCeeMax ur welcome dong
Coming from a mechanic I think the shock is the issue how it was kind of a clunking noise with a little vibration makes it sound like a shock. Plus it looks like it’s leaking fluid it shouldn’t be oily like that. I hope you fixed the issue though. I have a 2018 Lincoln mkz and it would bother the crap out of me if I had something like that especially since it’s supposed to be a quiet soft riding car.
Thanks for the info Sean. Yes sir. I was able to find a resolution in the very next vlog after this one: "THIS Was the Source of The Suspension Noise! How to Replace Shock Absorber (Lincoln mkZ,Ford Fusion)" (ua-cam.com/video/Zm8mWDPhRbY/v-deo.html).
Jay Cee Max I’m sorry I didn’t even see you added another video! But that’s awesome I’m glad you were able to find it I’m sure it was annoying. But I love your car I hope you keep posting videos on it.
@@seanh6127 Indeed. Thanks. It was very annoying. I put it off for more than a year and then finally decided to vlog about it. Yes. Vlog uploads would be made to this playlist: "Lincoln mkZ- Save Money- Do It Yourself
" (ua-cam.com/play/PLSobJ3CJ_Tg10EcZiYbHrmt9qrYPR2E3d.html)
Another sound you might get out of the mkz is the stabilizer bar bushings that bolt to the frame. Those can wear out and cause a clunking noise too! Good vid though !
Thanks!
I also have a Lincoln MKZ 2019 and it’s the most beautiful car I have owned!!!
Super nice Bee.
Thanks for commenting.
I had a similar issue with my Mkz. I had the shock absorbers replaced and it still didn’t fix the issue. I then took the car to another mechanic for another look and they removed the driver side tire where the noise was coming from and noticed right away that the 2 bolts that tighten down the brake caliber weren’t even screwed in at all. I was so upset that I spent all that money for nothing
Yikes. Sorry that happened to you.
Lol it’s funny because I’m having the same problem with mine!!!!! I have a 2014 mkz Lincoln hybrid and had a mechanic look at it and he told me it was one thing and had it fixed. Told me it was another thing had it fix. Then he said I need shocks so got those done and it stopped but it wasn’t the shocks either!!!! Lol I’ve taken it back to my mechanic 4 times and he couldn’t figure it out..
It was just that the bolt on top of the shock and shock mount was loose!!! Lol It’s still happening so I have to get a new bolt or see if the top of the shock is stripped.. Yup that was the problem that you tightened!!!
Good luck fam!!!
Thanks for your feedback.
Sorry you had to go through so much with that "mechanic."

Thanks again for your feedback mate.
Jay cee max check that part under the 3 hose line near the shock absorber that connect from the chasses going to the back plate i notice that the rubber bushing is broken just try...
Vale! Ok good. I think you are referring to the Lower control arm and it's bushings. Ok I will mess with that part next. Thanks bro! 😁
These fords always have all sorts of clunking, clanking, and banging noises. I have a Milan and the same issue. You can check the sway bar bushing and other side suspension too.
Thanks!
That's definitely your shocks. I have the same car, had the same issue. If u replace one, replace both. If that's a hybrid, watch that rear damper solenoid. After replacing shocks I started having issues with that giving a reading. Good luck
Thanks for the suggestions.

Hello i found your video because I had the same problem. New shocks new struts. Took it to my mechanic and found out it was my real springs. Hopefully this helps ❤
Yes indeed.
Thanks for sharing.

I responded to this video a year ago regarding body bushings that could’ve been the problem so also had a clunking noise on my 2010 mkz today I finally solved the problem turns out it was the tool kit for the jack bouncing around in my trunk when I would hit a bump, only took me a year o figure it out, by the time I figure all the other minor problems out I figure my car will be a legitimate antique that my wife can sell cause I’m not thinking I’ll make it to 2035.
Lol. Dang. That would have annoyed me to the max. Glad you figured it out.
Hi bro, nice to see u again. Waiting for your next upload ☺️. Stay healthy and active 🤠
Thanks for always following along bro. Working on hit now. I hope you and Deepika are doing well. Don't worry. I didn't forget about you guys. Just busy editing and working. Thank you RK!
@@JayCeeMax 😊
The rubber bushings on the lower control arm appears to be worn out from your pictures also check the rear swaybar bushings
Thanks for the feedback J & J! I replaced the lower control arms two videos ahead of this one titled: "How to Replace Lower Control Arms and Spring to Fix Noisy Suspension" (ua-cam.com/video/ER-BjvS4nTw/v-deo.html). The sway bar bushings turned out to be OK! Thanks again.

Well it’s a Ford. Mine does the same thing besides, my heater works fine. Wait until your purge valve starts to give. I guess it’s very common If you do a lot of stopping and starting, it was stall out it’s fine for point a two point B driving And it’s a pain in the ass if you’re gonna try to fix it yourself it’s very easy to get to, but they made it where you can’t just change out the part you have to change out all the hoses
@@jessebeatty9696 Yes. I have changed the purge valve once since I got the car in 2018.
wew jay cee max ur such a good fighter of your car at all times hehhe
😁 LOL. Thanks Ate Dana. But you're the girl scout overall. You are always prepared to have a great time everywhere you go. Thanks for the feedback!
@@JayCeeMax hehe and you knew it anyway thank you sir have a good day ahead
Nice CAR Jay Cee. I think it’s the bushing that causes some noise same thing happened to my car before.
Well. I guess ur car is doing good now.
Thanks Kulot! Yes. The car is fixed now. The update to this issue is found here: ua-cam.com/video/Zm8mWDPhRbY/v-deo.html
I am happy you were able to get your car fixed. These machines are not cheap.
Thanks for visiting my channel!
How I wish my husband is with you coz am sure he knows what's the problem of your car. I am almost certain that we have experienced the same problems as what you have right now with your car.
I will ask my husband to view this video and see if she can help or at least diagnose what could have caused that crackling sound but it will take a while okay. Just hang in there bro take care.
Talaga? That is so cool. I would love to meet him.Thanks for the support and attempts to assist. You are blessed. I will most likely upload a response to this soon when I have time. So let's see.
your realyy good on this stuff jaycee
Thanks Mary Ann! I appreciate you always checking out my vids :)
I have the same problem, but when driving on sport mode, the sound disappears. I hope to find a solution
Yes. Sport mode tends to tighten the dynamic ride control and may keep it from making noise hear and there. I will post a follow-up video to this. Stay tuned!

Just a little my friend Nathan. lol. I just want to try my best to avoid the dealership. Thanks for the comments.
I am having the same transmission hard shifting issue at the same speeds with my ‘14 Lincoln MKZ 2.0T, did you ever find out the cause?
I went to Ford and they deduced the the 6F50 6F55 Solenoid Assembly Transmission Control Module needs to be replaced. I never fixed it. So I don't know if changing it will actually fix the transmission jerking at certain speeds.
I’m having the same problem with mine🤦🏽
@@mrgrant483 Yeah. I won't buy this car again
It's actually an easy fix, all you need is a scanner, toggle down to adaptive transmission settings, and just push reset, then drive the car 5 miles or so, and good as new.
Where did you buy the seat cover?
@@user-rb5eo8zk9w amzn.to/3ycZ5X0
If you have 20s for rim size, expect trouble. 19s is what must stay.
@@jeffreywitczak9840 Nah. All is well with these 20 inch rims. Please take a look at the comments for this video and the very next video after this one with the mkZ playlist which shows the fix.
You will see sooo many people with this exact same issue with no mention of 20 inches or more.
Ford just needs to get their act together.
Did you check the battery in the small compartment on the left (drivers ) side in the trunk to make sure it is secure and not able to bounce around when you hit bumps. Hopefully that's it.
There's a battery in the trunk of the 2013 Lincoln mkZ Base. I never heard of this. What is that battery for?
In regards to the sound @Lorinda Zimmerman, I found it!
This particular rear end issue has been found. Take a look 😊 : ua-cam.com/video/Zm8mWDPhRbY/v-deo.html
Not sure if you ever figured out what your issue was. I have a 2014 MKZ that had the exact same issue just on the passenger side. The bushings are going bad in the rear end. You can test this by taking WD40 or brake fluid and spray the bushings, let them sit for about 10 min and then spray them again. Ensure that you hit them all then take the car for a ride again. As far as the rear shock, if you see oil on the outside of the encasement then you need to replace them. The seals on the shocks are bad.
Thanks for your feedback.

I wouldnt go with the cheap discount auto parts one I would try to go with the factory one if possible. Me I would replace them in pairs so I would replace both the rear shock absorbers

In at 4:45 now, talking about the jack. I have a low profile Daytona jack from Harbor Freight. Made in same factory, was the same parts and the same design and bynthr same people that make a Snap-On jack. Snap-On actually sued HF over their claims of it being basically the same. Snap-On lost cause the jacks are 99% identical. Snap-On as a different option but they're the same in form and over-all function. Anyways, it's low profile and should fit under your car--assuming you still have it.
Thanks for the info. The one in this video fits well.
Thank you for the informative video. I was actually looking into getting the 2013 MKZ AWD, but would you say that this car is reliable?
You're welcome. It's Very reliable. The only pitfalls would be the exact things I mentioned at the beginning of the video when I got off of the ground. If you can deal with those things you will be fine.
Follow-up video coming soon.
@@JayCeeMax I just got a 2014 MKZ and love it, but have noticed rear vibration. I’m hoping it’s a bent rim and not the drive shaft. How is the ride in yours? Mines a little rough compared to a MKS I test drive. I was curious if that’s expected? Great video man
@@N1CH0LAS12 I have a mkS playlist as well on this channel. The 2009 mkS is a more smoother ride, but it drives sluggish at first roll because it's so heavy. But it is smoother than the 2013 mkZ. The mkZ is more zippy and faster but it jerks at 10-15 mph and then again at 25-30 mph.
Many people have complained about these transmission issues in the forums and I abhor it. Other than that, the mkZ is a great ride. I did not notice any rear virbrations. Just rear clunking as shown in this video. The clunking was fixed in the very next video after this in the mkZ playlist on this channel.
Modern Ford made product! Found the issue! lol but seriously, modern american made cars have been a joke for 10+ years now. as the market requires more electronics and more complex transmissions(torque converter autos were fine and good ones lasted 300k miles) in cars, they get worse and worse. but what really makes most of them horrible is the penny savings they are doing in all parts of the cars.
but anyways, I just stick to japanese cars to avoid all of these horror stories. and the hondas/mazdas have the good driving qualities I like.
Thanks for your feedback. I still have the car but have also jumped on the Japanese bandwagon. I have a Toyota Century playlist on this channel.
Strut is leaking also have you had the dealer replace the rear differential oil I had mine done at 30k miles and it was star ting to go bad they replaced the front PTU that day also keep an eye on your PTU 1200 bucks out of warranty
Great eye Sachi!
This particular rear end issue has been found. Take a look 😊 : ua-cam.com/video/Zm8mWDPhRbY/v-deo.html
Yes, I just recently sucked out and re-filled the PTU fluid and the rear differential fluid. Indeed, a full replacement for either can be quite costly! Thanks for your great feedback mate.
@@JayCeeMax i caught mine in time with low miles bought 7 extra years of warranty which the FRONT PTU & idler pulley paid for that warranty. I couldn't imagine if my adaptive LED headlights stop working there's 1500 each side covered by the warrant and that blend door problem is EXPENSIVE as the doors have to come off to remove the 12 inch bolts that hold the dash in. The part is 1200 plus 2 days labor EEEEEK!!
@@mkzenthusiasts I will make a video on one of the blend door actuator fixes in the future.
@@JayCeeMax how many miles are on your MKZ AWD 3.7L V6 My 2016 has 31,800. The end of 2018 I found ONE in all 50 states it was a CPO every other on is a 2 liter Turbo that's tiny. I wanted a non turbo v6 I almost bought a brand new Fusion but no V6 option. Trust me my next AWD sedan will be a CTS-V if I can find one or a CT5-V. Ford's screw up was the transverse V6 it shouk d have been longitudinal like the Cadillacs do it
@@mkzenthusiasts This 2013 mkZ 3.7 V6 just hit 100,000 miles. Same here. Next car will not be a Lincoln. The transmission have too many defects. I am going JDM Japanese.
You need new rear shocks and shock mounts. They're blown. Mine did the exact same thing (also a 2013 3.7), left rear shock was blown and wouldn't come back up... I can tell by how rusty it is, that it is original.
Thanks Justen!!. Why do these parts fail so soon?? I wasn't even close to 100,000 miles when they failed.
@@JayCeeMax it seems fairly common for them to fail, to me it seems like more or less an age thing vs miles. Mine had 116k when they failed. Id recommended doing the mount as well, it might still be good but you dont really want to have to do it again when it does.
@@JayCeeMax Also, the 20" rims are likely much heavier (unless high end lightweight ones) than stock rims and will accelerate shock and shock mount wear. If the car is lowered that will exacerbate it even more.
@@JM811Cars Thanks for all of your advice Justen. I hear you on the mounts as well. I actually took them apart and they are still pristine at the moment. I did some research where some only changed the shock absorber mounts and some just the shock absorbers. I will try the absorbers for now as money is tight. It's ok if I have to de-tire again if the mounts do actually fail. It will give me something to do if necessary. Thanks again. New video coming soon!!
@@ManiacsWorld Maniac in da house!!
You are right that aftermarket parts can accelerate wear. But I remember hearing the clunking, clinking and clanking a few months after I purchased it in October 2018. I was extremely disappointed to hear the noise. So now it's time to fix this mug! I don't like to lower my cars. I don't know. It was never my thing. Thanks for the love and support as usual my friend!
Aye I had an issue similar to this! I thought it was the struts, but they were just replaced! But come to find out it was a shield that was loose under the car and was clanking against the bottom of the car!
Oh wow. At least you got that handled quickly. Thanks for sharing your experience Malice.
@@JayCeeMax Handled quickly you say?! Well why the dealership send me to Lincoln to get my DRL in my headlight checked out, they show my underneath and my bottom shutters are broken, my radar hangin, my AC compressor had damage, and my bottom chin spoiler was cracked?! Its cool, theyre gonna fix it! Its a 2017 Black Label Vineyard! They gonna have to get me right buddy!
@@lordmalice8368 My goodness. It's almost like you hit a moose or something. I'm happy you're gonna get it fixed.
@@JayCeeMax Hell, I didn't hit anything! It was like that when I bought it! There wasn't any crashes on the Carfax! The 1st owner even put drywall screws in the damn bumper! If they don't restore my car to 100%, then either I want all my money back, or they take like $4000 off and ill get it fixed myself! They had it for 2 days, I should be hearing something tomorrow!

"How to Replace Lower Control Arms and Spring to Fix Noisy Suspension" ( ua-cam.com/video/ER-BjvS4nTw/v-deo.html )
Kinda late but I'm suspecting the upper portion of the shock is loose
Thanks for the suggestions.
This particular rear end issue and fix has been found. Take a look 😊 : ua-cam.com/video/Zm8mWDPhRbY/v-deo.html
Change that shock if u ever see a leak on a shock it’s all bad change it ASAP and change both on the rear not just one cuz one end will be higher then the other
You are correct.
Happy to help
I have a 2014 MKT . It clunks when going from park to drive and no power at all . Then the clunking goes away . Any advise ? Mechanic can’t figure it out
What you are describing is the exact same issue that is happening on the 2009 mkS that I show on this channel. For that issue, I purchased the 6F50 / 6F55 transmission solenoid. (Part No.: AA5Z-7G391-A
MODULE - TRANSMISSION CONTROL).
This is what the Battlefield Ford mechanics says is the issue. I bought the part 1.5 years ago and I have yet to install it. I will get to it one day and I will vlog it. I hope it works.
nice car bro, drive safely
Hi R.J. Thanks for the support!
I had a similar issue and it turned out to be a body bushing that sits between the body and the chassis.
Wow. I'm happy you got it figured out.
I have similar noises in my 2014 MKZ Hybrid.

Thanks for commenting ST1984💪🏾.
Jay Cee!!!!!
Robby! Thanks for watching bro!
Maybe it needs to be replaced. I know nothing about fixing cars. Sorry. I hope you fix the problem soon.
I think so too. The sound is excruciating. Thanks overall for tuning in Leah. You're awesome.
This might sound like a dumb question, you sound like you know a lot about cars, but it happens, have you checked the spare tire lock? I have a Lincoln MKX 13’ and when I bought mine in 16’ the dealership had put a new one in but didn’t secure it. It sounded just like that and it sounded like it was from the wheel.
You're fine bro. There are no dumb questions. What you are saying is a great place to start when diagnosing random sound from the back as sometimes it can really be that easy.

Thanks for your great feedback mate Ryan D!
Mine is very very loud same side 2013 hybird I thought hybird battery loose they want 1200 to do back shock
Robbery.
If you are able to do it safely or can find someone to do it for you, just watch my video 3 times, buy the tools, buy the parts and then you are set.
Both sides should be replaced at the same time.
2016 mkx same noise. shock and shock mount replaced noise is gone
Yes indeed.
Thanks for sharing.

Nice vlogging jc im back again long time no see
Thanks for always tuning in regardless Anna. I'm here. Just trying to stay busy and fix these cars. I appreciate the support.
I currently have a 2014 lincoln mkz 2.0 and mine has ALL the same problems, even the clanking noise in the back but i always thought it was normal🤣 my car also shifts very hard between 2nd and 3rd gear
Dang. Why Lincoln? Whyyy? 😊😊😜😜
I hope your car is no longer making that noise but if so I'd replace the wheel hub and see if that fixes your issue. Good luck!
How can i seend you a pickture i saw some broken rubber bushing in your car bro.
IG. Same name. Thanks!
This is a good video thanks for sharing
new friend here 🙂
Hi Jhen. Thanks for checking out the account. More car videos to come!
@@JayCeeMax that's very cool keep it up!
Why you just didn't take it back to the dealership since it been having a issue from the day you brought it, factory warranty
Factory Warranty already expired by miles and years. When I bought it used, it was sold "As Is." No warranty.
@@JayCeeMax oh it already was over 50,000 miles , thought you brought it new
@@facemask9270 Thanks for being here.
Sound like strut bushings or strut fork bushings
Thanks for the suggestion.

Jay Cee Max You ever get "Drive Control Malfunction Service Required" in your MKZ? What was the issue if you have?
Nope. Never received that message.
What about the rear sway bar bushings and links?
No issues. They were right and made no noise.
This isnt a 100% diagnose for you but im working on a mkz making a similar noise in the front and i found that the rubber bushings on the lower control arms where going and is cause unnecessary shifting which cause knocking with the struts and the part right in front of them
Thanks for watching Avery! I appreciate it. Luckily I don't have any front end issues as of yet. This particular rear end issue has been found. Take a look 😊 : ua-cam.com/video/Zm8mWDPhRbY/v-deo.html
Maybe, you need buy another new car Jay Cee.. hehehe
Dili. LOL. Other than the stated issue it's an awesome car. Thanks for being here!
I have a 2014, always had the clunking. It ended up being the rear window screen
Oh wow. That's different. Thanks for your response.
Thinking about buying one of these and carefully taking it all in....Humm?????
If you can handle everything I said in the beginning of this video, it will be great!
it's still beautiful and sporty though.
But a mechanic told me it was the air lines that was not giving air to the shocks
Thanks for your feedback.

Sorry i have no IG i can't download my phone running out of space...
Its OK bro. The lower control arm is the most lowest piece. If you talking about the bushings on that piece, then copy. New video about that coming soon. Thanks bro.
What is up with the doilies on the seats?
I like the style made popular by the Japanese: ua-cam.com/channels/sfUASBEZR8ABdma0ee8Zbg.htmlcommunity?lb=UgwWZp_ILCjiB7BbL3J4AaABCQ
Its the sway bar link

My boot is ripped and the black plastic sleeve thing is wayyy low
@@Ruleno.9 if the shock is still performing up to speck then all should be well until it totally fails.
@@JayCeeMax what will happen if it fails while driving? I’m going to replace the back two absorbers and boots in two weeks when I get paid. Should I be concerned?
ohh wish that I can ride your car sir😅😅
Lol. Come on through. There is room for 5.
😀
Thanks Llyne Rose.
I have same issue
The second video shows the fix. It pops up at the end of this video.
I assume you still haven't found the issue?
Great eye William!

Thanks for your great feedback mate.
Shock absorber. Happened to mine
Yep. You got it right.
Sounds like my current issue. It was broken sway bar links BTW
So you have two issues or was the sway bar links the only issue?
@@JayCeeMax the clunking was solved from just replacing broken sway bar links on my 2007 mkz
@Wizdumb Ohh. I see. Yeah. The construction of the 2007 VS 2013 is different. The sway bars on my 2013 were fine. I never had an issue with them.
I had a 2008 mkZ as well and the sway bars were ok there as well.
Thanks for sharing your updates.
Do you get a surge going from second gear to third gear?
Yes. That's what I was referencing in the beginning of the video. I hate it with a passion mate. Thanks for asking.
@@JayCeeMax Discovered this weekend that one of my motor mounts is shot!
@@KevinColumbus With a good jack and jack stands I'm sure one could tackle it. I hope a solution is found soon. Cheers.
its your spare tire in the trunk sirrr thank me later

Thanks for your feedback mate.
My 2017 does it too
Thanks for the info.
I think that is upper arm bro.
I checked that second, but off camera. The upper control arm and it's bushing were as solid as a rock. No play and no creaks or squeaks. No tears in the boots either.
I have the same car. 2013 Lincoln MKZ. I had that sound. My issue was a missing disc brake screw. Forgive me I'll describe it. The Disc brakes are secured with 2 long screws that are screws on one end and have recessed allen wrench heads on the opposite end. Anyway, during a brake pad change they neglected to put one back and the other was loose. Yummy... NOT!!! made the same sound. Just a guess
Wow. That sucks that happen to you.

Thanks for your feedback mate.
It is the shock. I had same problem.
Yes. The car is fixed now. The update to this issue is found here: ua-cam.com/video/Zm8mWDPhRbY/v-deo.html
I am hope you were able to get your car fixed.
@@JayCeeMax yes. I was puzzled at first because it was replaced about a year ago. Was under warranty from dealer so cost me nothing.
@@JayCeeMax mine has everything except the panoramic sun roof
Its awd with 3.7 v6. Just so you know the ptu (power transfer unit) for awd is notorious for losing lubrication and failing. I had to get it replaced. Thankfully I had car shield.
@@JayCeeMax mine is same color
@@JayCeeMax get the ptu relubricated every 30,000 miles. Mine went right before 50,000. Warranty would have covered it but I waited until I was over the 50,000 by 80 miles.
I am sure you checked the trunk to make sure nothing was loose in that location. Need a better suspension....just replace the entire thing. I see so much that need to be replaced. you may be out of 3K dollars fixing it.
Thanks for the advice!
Yea strut mount
🚑
This blew my ptu out twice sent it back. To.the bank
Yikes. I'm sorry you had to go through that mate.
Swaybar links
Thanks for the reply.

I took them off 4 weeks ago. I will put those 20's on the Highlander. I hope you approve Rich.

so it wasn't the driveshaft? also; I wasn't expecting a response from a 3yo video 😅 but I appreciate it
No worries. The next video explains it all.
