Hi Everyone,
I have a 2011 Toyota Sienna AWD (150K Kilometers). When in park or at very low speeds (like backing out of the driveway), there is a suspension thud/creak/binding noise. I've narrowed it down to the front driver side for sure. When I go over large bumps I will get a clunk as well. I lifted up the car and looked for play in the tie rods, ball joint, sway bar links etc., but I didn't see anything remarkable. however, when I put my hand on the suspension spring I can feel the vibrations quite strong through it as I turn the wheel (in both directions). I feel like it's a bad strut bearing? Anything else I should check?
Thanks
She sounds like the strut. I would just replace the whole thing. They sell whole units these days. You just bolt it off and bolt it on
