Default 2004 IS Sport Edition Lots of noise front right

Hey All! I am getting a lot of noise any time I hit a pothole out of the passengers side front. I live in Pittsburgh and pot holes are a thing of life around here. My question is how do I know if I have suspension issues?

If I do have suspension issues what kind of parts should I get to replace the bad with?

raise the car in the air, move the wheel side to side in the 3pm-9pm position, and top to bottom in the 12pm-6pm position. if you have bad ball joints/control arms, you can see which component has play.

If you lack the ability to identify the problem, I suggest you take it to a professional. suspension component work if done incorrectly can lead to a serious accident if a component comes undone.

Sounds as if something is loose. Have not yet had a chance to put it on the rack. Should I be concerned?
