'04 TL Suspension Clunk

Hello everyone, I got an 04 TL with 96,000 miles on it. I just installed some Function and Form Type 1's about two months ago. Since the day I installed them, my rear passenger side makes a clunk noise every time I'm in reverse, turning. I don't think it does when I'm reversing straight, just turning. And I get my once in a blue moon clunk noises on the road from the passenger rear.


I can't figure out why it's making that sound but it does irritate me, cause I'm bit of an anal person about that stuff. My bushings look fine, nothing looks like it's rubbing.

Possible my top hats need simply tightened?

Thanks guy.

Check your side motor mount.

Since when do motor mounts make a clunk noise? Especially from the rear of the car?

OP, make sure everything is tightened down properly. If you had Type IIs I would suggest that you check the dampening knob to make sure it's tight but that doesn't help you much
