Dealership fixed it. They said the bolts needed tightened. The noise completely stopped. Anyone know the torque specs of the control arm bolts? What is it like, 120 foot lbs? lol

I impacted them on there. Then later when the problem came back I checked with a ratchet and I didn't want to risk trying to get them any tighter. There is some kind of poor design or something, going on with these cars, when it comes to the control arm bolts. I guess next time I have to work on the control arms on one of these cars, I'll get a torque wrench and some ARP bolt grease.
