  1. I experienced the same thing but I discovered the cause a little differently. Recently I did a second test drive on a 2003 C2. I like the first drive but upon continuing with the purchase a wanted to drive it again to confirm my original thoughts about the car. Well, as I am driving I hear this rattle-knock up front. I look at the car's attendant travelling with me and sayes he heard it too. So I try to reproduce it. It's easy to do. Leave the windows up. There it is. Speed up and nothing. Slow down and nothing. Drive at 20 to 40 kph and there it is again. So I get back to the sales site and tell them to send the car to the dealer to a pre-purchase inspection. That was the plan all along but hearing the knock but it even more necessary. Since I pay for my own inspections I get the results directly from the authorized dealer. The result. Control arms are loose. The dealer suggested replacement of both upper and lower control arms. There was no mention of suspension parts other than the arms.
