4th Generation Rear rattling noise fixed

I just wanted to share with y'all that my baby just came back from the mechanic in tip top condition. I brought her in to have a rear rattling noise looked at. You Gen4 owners know what I'm talking about It turns out that the bolt securing the ends of the rear swaybar came loose. Also, I was getting rattling front he front too. The culprit there was a busted swaybar bushing bracket. These swaybars are a pain!

$60 later, my baby doesn't sound like she's caring a can of marbles around. All is well now

great man.... i remember that noise from the toronto meet! cool that it is all gone

a good mechanic is like a good bj giver- you always go the person that gave the service to you, and if they are not available - you just sit at home and fiddle with the problem yourself until a substandard result is met

Those end-link bolts are a pain in the butt! I've stripped a couple, and they cost about $60 each to replace. The set nut (accessed with a 5mm hex key) is made of some really soft metal...
