When I'm going down the road, I have rear clunking vibration around the rear of the car. Around and under the spare tire holder. Has anyone else experienced this?

If you've checked for loose objects near the spare, next take a look the suspension. Particularly the rubber seats on either end of the rear springs.

Thanks. We've checked everything around the tire, taken it out, etc... It sounds and feels like a deep rattle inside somewhere. It's quite annoying actually. We will check that, thanks again.
