I cannot figure this out. It sounds like a suspension component has lost a bushing (a sound I have heard a few times), but everything is fine.

The noise is clearly from the right rear, and in fact I've seen several other people complain about the same problem. So far I have eliminated the following possible causes:the spare tire and jack, the hatch, broken/loose shocks and mounts, bad control arm bushings, loose caliper, loose wheel, tranny mount, and u-joints.

The right rear wheel has no play to speak of, and there are no indications of wheel bearing failure, but I still suspect this to be some sort of rear end issue. I noticed that driveline can rotate a few degrees with the parking brake set. I know there is always play, but this is more then I have seen before. I can move the outer edge of the u-joit almost 1/4".

There is a TSB for this: Suspension : rear TSB (10/01/2001), but I haven't found anyone that can access it. I have stumbled across people who say the differentials rattle around inside the pumpkin, but none were credible sources.

Anyone dealt with this issue before?

 

Yo i have this problem too and i always that it was the jack and tools but i found out my antenna was loose and it was just squeekin like a mother. you could try tightening that. good luck

 

i have the exact same problem....1999 SS

 

I have that problem, for me it is the rubber bushing on the leaf spring.

 

mine does the same thing.. CANNOT figure it out annoying the crap out of me..

 

got the same problem in my brothers 01 s28 G2. thought it was bearing in the clutch or something but just a guess. maybe it was just meant to be. i havent noticed it interfering with anything so im not gonna mess with it for now.
