My 92 ES300 has a thump sound in the rear when crossing bumps in the road. I had the struts replaced and the strut mount checked. They both are in good shape. It sounds as though the suspension bottoms out when crossing bumps slowly. Anyone else having this problem and what corrected it?

How do you replace the cigarette lighter housing. The core is fried.

Rolex,

Go strait to the sway bar bushings. For some reason
on the ES3 they clunk when they go bad. They are cheep and really easy to replace. If you are only hearing the noise when there are people in the back seat. It is normal. The suspension in the Es is a bit weak. Good luck
