    Clunking from the rear question...

    Ughh upper rear shock mounts are shot....

    Put in an order for new ones as well as front lower sway links need replacement. Question though: I was getting a clunk coming from the rear anytime the car had a sudden jerk. I pulled the rear lining and noticed the top rubber mounts were completely annihilated......would that be the cause of that clunk you think?

    I recently dropped the rear subframe & exhaust of the car to repair some hard brake lines, and reinstalled everything. At first I thought maybe the exhaust was hitting somewhere, but upon closer inspection it seemed fine. Anything else I should be checking? Thanks in advance...

        Mine just started doing this in the rear passenger... two days after installing new front strut mounts. My E30 keeps me from being bored.
