Ok, I have like a rattling noise type thing coming from my rear passenger wheel and I was wondering if anyone knows what this is or has/had same problem. Only thing I can think of is shocks. I had a friend who was looking to buy a 98+ Camaro and he test drove about 3-4 and they all had this problem so I assume it's common.

 

Sounds like the anti-rattle springs on the rear disk brakes are wore out or missing. Another cause might be the anti-squeal padsare gone allowing the pads to jiggle aroundin the mounting bracket. Cheap undersized brake pads are another possibility.

The noise isn't 'common' to the breed.

 

I think I left out thatit only happens when going over bumps. Oops.

 

The shocks might not be securely connected to the body pan -- you have to check it from the inside of the car -- see a Chilton/Haynes manual... The rubber shock bushings might be worn too...

 

keep in mind this is where the jack is stored. check that everything is secure, maybe save yourself a little cash.
