I bought an '05 TL in May. I absolutely love the car its a dream come true...but...a month or so into it I started hearing this clunk. Looked at it and everything seemed alright. Now, whenever I hit a bump it sounds like the left front side of my car is going to fall off. Any suggestions to what it could be???
I checked the lower control arm bushing and there were to cracks in it but I don't know if thats normal wear and tear or not...if anyone posts back I'll post pics...thanks guys

 

check your motor mounts... how many miles you have on it?? Samething in reverse?

 

Post pics of your bushings. You may just have a blown shock or something stupid.

 

it has 119k...alot...:/, i will post pics hopefully tomorrow. i might have a bad motor mount...i talked to a acu/hon mechanic who said it might just be my suspension (every connection point) needs tightened.

 

Compliance bushings!

These cars are NOTORIOUS for these bushings going bad & is definitely something to look into especially if you don't have any service records. Also, look for worn sway bar links + broken motor mounts.

 

and 119,000 miles is NOT a lot for these cars, yours is still a baby compared to a lot of members. Make sure your timing belt has been replaced! Good luck!
