I've had to retighten nut located at the very top of my struts on my PSS10's. This noise was evident only at slower speeds over small bumps not at highway speeds over large bumps. Yah strange.

UPDATE: EVERY NOISE IS GONE AND CAR IS BACK TO 100%!!!!!! LOVE DRIVING IT AGAIN!!!!! hope the info I provided helps u guys with ur noise also check to see if your sway bar links are in tact because as i found out the hard way just because of some over drilling causing ware on the screw part of the sway bar link it may cause a nasty loud noise! hope it helps you guys out or you guys can msg me for more info!!!!

I had a noise, it happened when you hit a good bump or hard braking could cause it. I have to replace the bushings in the control arms. I have not heard the sound since. Drives great.
