hmm, so we had the fornt suspension replaced at autolusso about a month ago on my wifes 156 sportwagon. In the last week we have started to hear a rattling noise which sounds like its coming from the offside front suspension. Its not the usual 156 clunking, obviously as this is all brand new.

Anyone else had any rogue rattles from that area and been able to pinpoint it? Will have a look over it this weekend to make sure its nothing obvious or anything that could have come undone from when the work was done.

Ok found the culprit after a bit of prodding. Dont laugh, but it was the wheel arch liner at the bottom near the drivers door had come detached. Pushed it back over the lip it seemed to want to sit over and hey presto. No more rattle. Yey, if only they were always as easy to fix!
