.. A tech at a local AUTOX event told me I had loose bearings in my R-R . I had my brother check it this week and he told me my bearings are not loose (Hes a Toyota Tech) Also he told me that it doesnt sound like a loose bolt.. I have till Fathers Day to figure it out and try to fix it or my car won't qualify for the AutoX event...
If anyone can suggest what the problem is that would be great! Worst comes to worst.. the strut is screwed.. (I hope not!!!!) |

Under normal driving nothing... It was when they checked the wheel bearings.. They shook the wheels and heard something like a "knocking" noise

make sure every bolt in that area is tight, was your e-brake on and they tried to move the wheel?

maybe it's one of the rear suspension arms. There was a big thread about a clanging sound if u kick your rims at the front and back (as opposed to top and bottom). It's not exactly knocking tho.
