Not A-Body: PT Cruiser Suspension Noise

Did you replace the strut mounts when you did the struts? In my experience using the old plates on Chrysler products was a reason for comeback. Man, I love loaded struts.

Also, I've had this happen: my old IR 231 impact wouldn't tighten the nut down enough. Until I got my new impact I'd have to throw a breaker bar on the nut to get it fully tightened. This allowed for noise, too.

Just throwing out ideas. Sometimes we'd drive the car around the parking lot slowly with the hood up and someone else looking for movement and/or listening for noise. Man, I love my chassis ears: mystery noises suck.
