Weird knocking noise?

[Ty07allstar]

When I go over bumps my car sounds like something is loose under the hood. It's not very loud but definitely shouldn't be there. Sounds like it is coming from the front of the car. What could it be?

front sway bar bushings would be my guess.

I was hoping it was something with the suspension. I'm taking it to the shop on Thursday for the rear brakes so I'll mention this to him and hope that it's the problem.

Where is the swaybar bushing located?

not to sound like a smartass but on the swaybar... just take a look. The front can be a pita to do.

Just throwing this out there.... do you have basic knowledge on cars? Try downloading the manual to get a good understanding of the parts in question. We are here to help but these are very simple questions that even google can answer.
