Weird noise on my 2IS. HELP
Ive got this weird thumping noise coming from the rear passenger side. It thumps only when i hit minor bumps or cracks in the road. VERY ANNOYING!!
Ive pulled off the coilovers and sent them back for inspections and their fine.
any suggestions?

I have a noise coming from the rear that I believe I've identified as the rear brakelight housing rattling against the windshield when going over uneven surfaces. I wouldn't call it a "thumping", but that could still be it. I'd also check that everything's secured in your trunk. To test the rattle, you could have someone sit in the backseat and hold down the brakelight housing so it can't rattle, then drive over bumps and see if it still happens.

yea i checked the brake light housing and its not that it does sound like its coming from the trunk but ive pulled everything out including the spare and its still there. The people that have heard it as well describe it as a thump noise or a very low pitched rattle noise.

No it started happening about 6-7 months after I installed the coils. I was thinking maybe it was some bushings that went bad but not sure thats why im posting here see if anyones got any ideas.

When I took the suspension back they got it back to me by the end of the day so I didnt put the stockies back on, but thats my next step. I checked the brakes and rotors and theyre fine. It seems like ive checked every ******ing bolt and bushing under that car and it all looks ok. Im going to swap out for the stock suspension and see what happens. Thanks for the replies ill keep an update.
