Default It's usually the simple fix that works

The front right suspension started clunking when taking corners in a spirited manner. Whenever the suspension was transitioning load in a turn, left or right, it would clunk. But it would not clunk when going over a speed bump or under heavy braking when weight shifts forward. Started going through all the possible causes in my mind. Fixed the issue by securing the wheel lock key that was bouncing around in the glove box.

Something similar happened to me after installing KW V1s on my WRX hatch about 10 years ago.... the car would squeak like a wooden boat over any bump/bad roads. Tried everything you can think of, checked all the bolts multiple times, etc. Even started a case with KW to possibly remove and send them the coils for inspection.... Turns out it was the rear cargo curtain, I guess it didn't like the new extra stiffness. Took all of 5 seconds to resolve...
