Video: clunking noise

Just wondering if this is the famous camaro clunking popping noise a lot of people are experiencing. I have. 2010 camaro ss 1ss with BMR sway bars and end links. I think I can hear the drivers side clank and rattle more than the passenger side. It's only heard going 5-20 mph and only over bumpy uneven roads.

What BMR endlinks do you have? Quiet OE or sphericals? Make sure the endlinks are all tightened good! I couldn't listen to the vids, crappy internet connection here.

Sounds like loose end links to me.

I have the spherical Pfadt endlinks and they clunk too. I've been told by others that you have to really crank them down tight (well beyond the torque specs) to get them to stop. That, and you MUST use Loc-tite.

had that problem...if you get under car and pull on the sway it will make that noise. just tighten the endlinks down extra tight lol.
