Default knocking/clicking sound from my rear left....

that sound has been there since i bought the car...
i checked the brakes, i thoght it was my spare, cuz i didn't tie it down
but after i took my spare out, i can still hear it in my rear left...
wut could it be.... ppl said it could be my rims, maybe the previous owner didn't balance the tires...
but this sound came even before i bought rims...

does it come on when you drive straight, turning, at a stop, or when you hit bumps????? Check your suspension and brakes, make sure nothing is loose or missing a bolt somewhere. Try looking behind the left rear panels, go from there. Tell me what you find out. Later

I've had a similar problem with another car. It was my rear stabilizer links. Take your rear wheels off and check the links on both sides. Do this by gripping the link, and moving it around left and right. It should be easy to do. Also have a friend bounce the car from behind while gripping each link. "Feel" for your noise. You should be able to tell if it's bad... replace the bad link, or both at the same time, because the other side will do the same thing not long after.

Hopt that helps you!

my upper arm bolts were a quarter turn loose and they were clicking. clicking could also be due to a blown shock and it compressing all the way all the time. Could actually be anything
