Mytery Rattle (C5Tech or Anyone)
I have a rattle under the car. It does not seem to be associated with overall suspension travel. It occurs when on rougher surfaces and seems to be coming from the passenger side front to middle of the car. It is not a high pitched rattle it is more like something coming in contact with the frame. A pronounced thumping. I jacked the car up and the exhaust and shielding seems tight. All the bolts seem in place for the tunnel cover. There doesn't seem to be any looseness in the front suspension. No unnormal movement. So any other ideas?

I would agree a swaybar end link nut is mostlikly the cause especialy if it's more apt to happen over light bumps and more so at one wheel or the other.

Re: Mytery Rattle (gonbad)
Don't know if you have changed your shifter, but mine developed a similar strange rattle ( only occasionally) after installing Kirban Kwick Shift. I have had the console apart and looked everywhere I know to look and it stays! Very annoying. I know this didn't help but I am glad I am not the only one with a strange rattle.
