Default Please Help

So for the last 40-50 miles my S has had a rear knocking sound (no vibrations). I notice its when I take turns or even go over some uneven pavements. I thought my rear sway might have become loose so today I finally got around to checking it. It's not the sway, instead I see some lubrication on the rear drive shafts. Can someone please help me out by identifying this problem. I'm lowered around 2 inches and have drive shaft spacers in. I've been running this for approx. 1k miles.





Much appreciated.
Josh

Check the nuts on top of the struts that bolt it to the mount . They might look tight , but I have seen them loosen and give a knock as you are explaining .

Right now one of my fronts on the XB do it

Not sure what is causing your car problems, but the title of the thread sounded like you coulcn't figure out the latest moves you read about in Penthouse Forums.
