Hoping someone on here has some experience with this.
My wife's 2012 500S has had light rattle/knock noises in the rear since we bought 6 years ago. Have not found anything worn that would indicate the source. It seemed like the spare wheel mounted under the rear was causing it, but I checked that & no movement or rub marks evident.
There is also now a knock/pop from the r/f over potholes/ road heaves.
Looking online, ppl seem focused on the bump stops and maybe front end links as the culprit - however the ones that said they replaced them also said the noise was still there - which to me says that wasn't the cause.
Any thoughts or personal experience?
Not going to take anything apart until the weather gets much nicer out - this is how it looks now.
