    there's this odd patter/rumbling that sounds like it's coming from the front left of my 2007 Prius during bumps in the road. It's kind of unnerving. Here's a sound clip and hopefully one of you can identify the problem. It's a AAC file compressed to a zip file so that I could attach it. Thanks!

    Can't say, but anything that might be a suspension related problem could be dangerous and should be checked by a pro promptly.

    lol, couldn't hear it. All I got was a blast on a horn.

    You sure it's not your anti roll bar bush? Do you call it an anti sway bar bush?

    We get loads of them go over here all the time, esp in my job, do to all the speed bumps/humps we have all over.
