This is prooving a bit hard to solve. The front left makes a "pop" when it hits short sharp bumps such as pot holes or corrigations. Seems to be coming from the front strut. Have inspected all the front sway bar rubber bushes and they seem fine. Lower strut bush looks good. I fear the noise could be coming from the top of the strut asembly. Can't replicate the noise by bouncing the car and only does it with certain types of bumps. My mechanic was asked to investigate a couple of services back and couldn't find anything wrong :roll:
Struts are Bilstein. Springs are tallest Ridepro in the lowest circlip position. These are about 30000k old. Keen to hear from others that might have had the same noise happening. Just a bit worried it might be something else like ball joints or wishbone bushes or something?? Got a big trip coming up and keen to get it sorted.
Cheers
