Rumbling rear suspension
thumpers replied to thumpers's topic in 986 Boxster Suspension, Brakes, and Wheels
Thats for that folks! Am based in Ireland so the terminology is slightly different with part number 8 called the rear lower tie bar over here. Will go back to the dealer who fitted the rear" lower suspension arm" and find out exactly which part was fitted and compare it with the above diagram. Hopefully it was a different part and the above suggestion will sort my problem out. With thanks -
Rumbling rear suspension
thumpers replied to thumpers's topic in 986 Boxster Suspension, Brakes, and Wheels
Cheers for the reply! Is the long control arm different to the lower suspension arm? as Ive had that replaced. Excuse my ignorance of the suspension structure. -
Hi folks! First post so I hope you can help me with a problem that is ruining my joy of Boxster ownership. Firstly car is a 2001 S with 73,000 miles on it. Problem is when driving over lateral undulations in the road at low speed the rear of the car makes a terrible rumbling noise- best described as something loose in the rear luggage compartment or a loose ball and socket joint type of rumble. Seems more pronounced on the drivers side. Have been to the OPC who have replaced lower suspension control arms first which didnt solve the problem, then returned to them and they replaced the rear anti-roll bar which made no difference and then the drop links all round which tightened the car up but alas didnt sort the problem. Am quickly running out of patience (and money!) trying to solve this problem and hope that somebody could offer some suggestions to a solution? Any help is greatly appreciated.
