Thread: rear end clicking noise and tpms sensor problem.

hi im having a 08 grand prix base model with only 36k miles and when im driving through a bump fast or even when i hit a big pothole like going around 50miles/h-70miles/h sometimes i hear a clicking noise from the rear passenger side. could anyone tell me where to start looking for the problem?

i checked the bouncing test and feels the stut is fine. and the clicking noise doesnt come when i bounce only when i drive fast over a big pothole or a bump. i even checked the bushing and non of them seems to be worn out or broken.
my buddy told me to check the strut mount. and i dont know how to check that.
it would be great if someone can help me on finding the problem since the car is practically brand new.

also one more problem. the rear passenger tpms doesnt show up in the dash. and gives a error message when i start up the car. and im about to install new tires so can anyone tell me where i could get a tpms sensor for the rear right wheel. and is it hard to install it and does it have to do any programming to do after installation?? and where can i get a sensor for cheap. does it have to matchup a serial number or something which is in my car?

thanks
sid

ok this weekend i went through all the stuff in the car. and found the problem. it was only the trialling arm was bent and when ever i hit a bump hard part of the trailing arm rubs against the body. so i replaced the trailing arm and put up new ingalls performance camber kits on it and the ride is sweet now.
