Default Strange noise when riding through potholes etc.

Hi All,

I have a 2007 Mazda 5 and recently noticed a strange noise when riding through potholes or bumps mostly over 20 mph. I can hear it only when the window is down.

Any ideas what is causing this?

I am not sure whether it could be the exhaust or something else. Tried to shake the back-end of the exhaust, but no joy.

Any suggestions welcome on how to find out what is causing this...

Thanks,

There is a service bulletin for this i believe (if it is indeed what you are talking about)

Have your dealership or reputable mechanic address it

Thanks buddy! I think it is going to be the rear springs based on the noise description.

Thanks for the help!
