I had the car at the dealer yesterday for a couple of issues and mainly for an intermittent clunk sound coming from the rear,especially on bumps but unfortunetly could not duplicate the sound mainly due to the rain,but the good part was the senior tech is a buddy of mine and was able to get a fairly good amount of oil buildup out of the CAC which was a good thing,the great and important part is you can really hear those turbo's spool alot louder know,guess the oil builup really had an effect,cause even the throttle response is better,at just hitting 23k on her its a cheap effective preventative maintenance which many should consider.Z
At least the trip wasn't for not...anything loose in the trunk. I know when I had the netting up and carried a can of fix a flat in that net....it would make a nice clunk at random times. No clunk since moving.

Got the new 255/45/20 general gmax tires installed (what a difference from the old crappy mx4's lol) and then ran into a mazdaspeed 3 as we were both getting onto the interstate, we raced from a 30mph roll up to ~100 and I put 3 cars on him

Don't be afraid to crank up the air pressure in the gmax. I have the same size and just started putting 38psi instead of the sticker recommend 34. It made a huge difference in ride and handling. They're rated up to 51 psi max.

Something loose in the trunk (as Rich said) or suspension would be my vote too, Z!  Glad they got the CAC taken care of :thumb: Any idea what that gunk looked like?

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

Thanks -MANU AND RICH,sorry for the late reply,was just trying to troubleshoot this noise and it seems to be coming from the rear shade visor,when its up its hitting the rear window when going over bumps,think there is like a rubber stopper at each corner of the shade which is wearing out i believe,will keep you updated.Z

I guess it looked like a brown color,heres a little video which the tech was able to tape,used a compressor type suction to get some out of the CAC.Z   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=urMO7Z5d02k

Definitely a mix of something!  Not as vivid as JimiJak's catchcan offerings thankfully LOL!  You still have warranty, right, would take care of the rear shade rattle?
