...if its a bit more of a clunk then its an endlink.
I would think the strut mount would click more when the wheels are being turned because the berings are smashed or missing but a clunk when accelerating or stopping would be an endlink.
Does it happen over bumps? Can you isolate a regon, i.e. one corner of the car from which the noise is originating?

Not really, the gen 4 strut mount problem persists (and is audible) at low speeds...starting/stopping at traffic lights, and such...NOT while turning or going over 20 mph.
i have a clunck noise in mine too when i come off a speed bump or other bumps in the road on the front drivers side. Whats that coming from? it has a new strut/spring/and mount
it neither a clunk or a clickin noise. it sounds like something is rubbin on something.

Admiral, yours is definatly a endlink bushing.
Its where the endlink connects to the swaybar or the strut.
