Weird noise from front end

They will have fun test driving your Z. Did you leave it on valet mode? Btw - hope they get it fixed.

lol I know the manager and he knows I check my mileage when I leave it ...so when they done they call me to test drive it with them in the car. I do hope this fixes it as well..I hate sounds that I can't locate and fix myself.

I've had plenty of funny noises that freak me out and every time so far it's been something loose in the passenger compartment. Not something from the car, just something I've left in moving around while I corner/accelerate/brake. Like a water bottle, loose change or something that's come out of my gym bag. Sometimes after I have a passenger, the seat belt does not go back perfectly and you hear the buckle bang on the plastic. That one freaked me out for a couple days before I figured where it was coming from.

Not in the passenger compartment ... it sounds like the front passenger side ... .. can almost feel it through the floor board ... can't find any signs of anything wearing or hitting ... I'm wondering if it is the polyurethane bushing in the supercharger motor mount .... I wouldn't think so due to it making the sound rolling backward with the car engine off

Hey there. Have you guys by chance figured out the problem here? I read the thread and it sounds strikingly similar to what I am experiencing. Front clunk. Not at high speeds. Reverse to park or park to drive moderate speeds or from zero.

Had the rear driveshaft replaced already due to the clunk in the rear but now I'm taking into the dealer for the front end clunk.

Thanks!
