View Full Version : Rattle in front right coner
Hey guys,
i was driving around the other day and i noticed a rattle coming from the front right side of my 3. i cleared out my glove box to make sure nothing was rattling in there. I brought it to the dealership and they said it was a control arm, my friend (not a good mechcanical source) said it couldnt be that. Does anyone know if the dealership is right or not?
Thanks

personally i would think it would be a stabilizer link because those are usually the first to start making noise. Maybe the dealer meant control arm bushings?

Take your car to Erin mills mazda. I had the exact problem and it should be on file because it is rare. They had my car for 2 days before they found something became loose on the inside of my dash

ya!! thats where i thought it was coming from so i emptied my glove department and it still made the noise so i figured it was the suspension. Ill mention that next time i go there.
my stupid ballist came loose and was just touching the body of the car everytime i went over a bump lol
