Is300 Sc

baby_lexus · October 18, 2005

Hi guys,

My IS300 SC seems to be suffering again.

When I turn left I get a series of clicks/dull clonks from what seems to be the front right suspension strut. When I straighten up it goes. If I turn right, the left one does the same, but not as bad. Also, speed humps produce a sound, but not a knocking sound, it's difficult to describe it.

Any ideas at to what both could be ?

thanks.

have a look at the link between the suspension and the anti roll bar

Hi

I had the same problem with my 04 IS300 Saloon, I took it in recently because it also had bad handling and tyre wear problems and they cured it all under guarantee. They changed the top mounts on the front struts and while they were at it, changed the front shocks/struts too, 'cos there have been occasions with faulty shocks/struts.

No more noise at the front end :D

I too have had similar problems with various front suspension components replaced under warranty at both my services so far. I'm now 6k after the last service and the noises are beginning to come back ....
