hey, i have a metal on metal sound coming from my rear suspension, it sounds pretty bad. . . i hear it making the slightest turn or going over the slightest bump. i have experienced the clunk and got the bushings replaced but this is a different sound. do i need new bushings again? or a sway bar? would i possibly need both?? this sound has me baffled and i don't want to do damage to my car by driving with it. plz let me know what you think asap. thanks chris:confused:

my e-series bushings seperated and i had rear swaybar hitting the subframe.
my car is at the dealer as we speak.
they called me today and said that they ordered anew swaybar and new bushings.

Here's the only possible help I can offer. Mine was a metallic clunking noise too - sounded horrible over the smallest of bumps. Mine was coming from the front but I suppose it could happen to any of the wheels.
