Suspension feels slightly loose, you hear a clunking noise from them
going over bumps.  Esp. noticeable if your struts are worn or your bump
stops are thrashed.

         Two common signs of a bad strut bearing is cluncking when hitting
bumps & poping while making turns (more pronounced if pulling out of a
parking spot!)
Goood luck. Fidel.
