I've got a '92 lude s-type, no suspension mods yet. since september i've noticed a slight kocking, like a hollow plastic sounding knock, from the rear pass side wheel well (or close to it). since its gotten colder out its been getting louder. i took out my subs, jack, trunk lining, spare tire ect and it still does it! i put her up on jackstands to look at the shock, strut, a-arm and bushing and all, and it all seems tight, nothing loose at all. so i really dont know what it could be, maybe some molding on the inside by the rear seat? any help would be great...

i have a 93 si and i had the same problem but after i rotated my tires i had no problem......make sure to put the front passenger tire on the back driver side and vice versa

my 93si also does this. there is some info in an old thread about this condition, don't know if any one ever solved this noise. a loose wheel can do this also!!

Could be the cold weather taking effect on the bushings, they start to creek and pop when its really cold out.
