Do you have AVS?
Mine was making a rattling sound in the front. I took it in and the strut was defective (strut was blown).

No AVS on mine.
Happening on both front and rear whenever going thru speed humps.
Dealer is saying that this is a “normal operation noise” for the absorber. Also tested the dealer’s demo unit for comparison and the same “clunk” noise can also be heard.
This is definitely abnormal to me, such noise never occurred on previous my Camry nor Corolla.
According to the service technician Lexus will not do anything unless they receive more complains/feedback from owners..damn.

Very possible a strut is bad.

Oh sure, the strut was probably always bad. Stuff like that certainly isn't common, but it happens.
"Its normal" is normal MO for Lexus dealers.

I haven't had that issue with a Lexus, but I did with my Pacifica. It was a bad strut.

Hello, sorry to bump an old thread but just got my ES with AVS. I started noticing a clunk/adjustment noise from the front while stopped, not when going over bumps. Anyone experience something like this or just the bump part? Thanks
