This has been bugging me for a long time now (at least 20K miles), and I have no idea what it is - just wondering if anyone else experiences this.

When I go over speedbumps and sometimes on hard rights, I get a clunking sound from what I think is somewhere near the front left wheel. It almost sounds like something is bottoming out - the engine mount wouldn't be that crappy, would it? Besides, if there was a mount problem, I think they would have found it when they replaced my engine.
 
could be the strut bearing, had a similiar problem when turning the wheel ( like into driveways and parking lots) changed it and the noise is gone.
