Ever since I bought my Celica there's been a funky clunking/clicking noise coming from the rear of the vehicle whenever I go over bumps, I guess you could call it rattling. I assumed at the time that it was just a loose suspension component. However; I have replace the suspension all the way around and still hear the noise. It is in fact now worse as it comes from both the left and ride side of the vehicle, instead of just the left side. Wondering if anyone else has had this issue and what it was. I'm wondering if it's that lid or the life supports maybe in the trunk area. Another thought is that the spare tire cover back there is not stock, but just some random cut out, the noise sound like it's coming from higher up though and coming from the sides, not in the center.

What kind of mileage is on your car? do you also experience this under hard turning?

sound like it may be the top hat on your strut.

if you recently replaced suspension components and didnt tighten this enough that may explain why the other side is now also making this noise
check and see the condition on this piece and make sure the gland nut is properly tightened.

hope this offers some insight

good luck and let us know how it turns out

peace
