Irritating front end noise....

Pete it will be two bolts on either side of the motor. If you craw underneath the car you have the cross member that connects either side that goes under the oil pan they are a couple inches towards the back of the car and higher up. I was able to get a 1/2 inch ratchet w/o an extension on them and a pipe 2 feet long on the end to tighten them up. I will grab a pic tonight when I get done work just to aid in this post.

They bolt right to theframe I believe and they are 15 MM you should see them if you have it up on a lift or jack stands.

On my car is is four bolts, two on each side. From under the car, follow the subframes to the front until they end. There will be two bolts in front of the subframes and behind the control arm, these are the ones I tightened.

I'd like a picture of the location of these bolts. I suspect that is the source of my Clunk I heard yesterday when I was driving the bird for the 1st time this year.

Tony, I don't have a camera but if you read my post above Pete D's, its really hard to miss them as they are in plain sight, 15mm. Two on each side, right behind the front control arms and before the subframe rails.

Guys, I rechecked my alignment yesterday and it was out a few degrees. If you find these bolts to be loose, you need to find a place that does free alignment checks. The good thing is that I was able to correct it with the tie rods and I didn't have to play with the strut mounts.
