When I drive my Z in the cold, and the car is not warmed up yet, I hear a "clunk" coming from the front end wehn I hit a bump. When warmed up (the car, not the weather) it is quiet over bumps.

I thought I had something loose at first and got my car on a lift to check everything out and found nothing amiss. I also had the dealer look at it (I take my car in for a free inspection every 3 months) and they too found nothing.

It is a definite clunk-type sound -- not very loud, but definitley there. Could it be tires? Unknown. Maybe. who knows.
