today i started hearing some poping noises from the front passenger side i beleive near the wheel...i would hear pop whenever i would hit pot holes and litlle bumps like that...

any idea?..is this normal?

 

Turns out to be a loose rear axle bolt.

 

damnit

 

could it be anything else?

it only goes off when i hit deep pothols or speed bumps in parking lots..and its just a POP

 

The G is a poppy car anyway but that could be a worn bushing too.

 

I had that noise several times over the last 2 years. 1st time - it was the TSB for rear clicking, then it was the front right side wheel bearings, then it was the brake hardware kit needing to be replaced, and then once a motor mount bolt that came loose, so the engine torque or I let of the gas, over bumps, I got the clicking.

Every time, the specific noise disappeared with the repair - and the noise was virtually identical in all cases, making troubleshooting a pain - especially when the motor mount issue came in - that got discovered by mistake.

Hey I had the shaking when I accelerated over bumps and it would stop after i let go of the gas pedal. I brought it to the shop and they said it was a loose engine mount bolt and they tightened it and the noise went away. A couple days later I think I felt the shaking again. So maybe the bolt came loose again? Is this a big problem? Where is this engine mount bolt? I don't want to have to pay the dealership everytime it comes loose.
