2007 Subaru Outback Suspension Noise Repair
The Subaru came in for a couple of things. A noise in the suspension was one of them. In this video I show how I diagnose and repair a noise in this 2007 Subaru Outback. It wasn’t easy to track down but it turned out that the left rear upper strut mount had come apart and was causing a ‘clunk’/’squeak’ when going over bumps. The replacement of this mount shows how to compress the coil spring on the strut as well as the replacement of the upper mount.
Here’s some useful links for you:
