bosango Posted December 31, 2009 Share Posted December 31, 2009 Hey Subeheads, I know sometimes these mystery noise questions can be hard to answer, but hopefully someone might be familiar with this one. I have a '93 Legacy LS which I acquired with the air suspension replaced by standard shocks/struts. Whenever I go over a big bump, it sounds like a heavy metal rod bounces in the trunk (well, I don't have a trunk, or a heavy metal rod for that matter - but that's what it sounds like). I've removed the spare and anything else that might be loose back there to no avail. I've put the car up on ramps and poked around for anything obvious, but it seems I might need to have the weight off the wheels to really check it out. Any idears? Also, along those lines, I like the idea of the air suspension. The compressor and all the plumbing is still in place. Would it be worth it to try to get the air system up and running some day or might this be more trouble/expense than it's worth? Happy New Year to those folks on the other side of the planet!
