September 24th, 2018 10:42 AM #12My wild guess is that your shock absorber is NOT properly mounted on the shock mount OR the shock mounting hole )which has a specific shape to accept the mounting rod of the shock absorber) is deformed and cannot maintain stability while the car is in motion hence the irritating sound. My 2004 Altis somehow showed similar symptoms before. Had changed all 4 shocks, bushings, stablinks and A-arm with all OEM. but still the irritaitng sound was not eliminated. Had the shock and mounting inspected and there it was, the mounting was shot. so I had it replaced and made sure that the alignment hole between the shocks and mounting were aligned during installation and that solved the problem. So what lesson did I learn, some underchassis repair shops dont properly mount shock absorbers into the the shock mounts, and when that happens the alignment hole becomes deformed and results to that super irritating sound....
Oh, you can use 3rd party shocks absorber, but the shock mounting, OEM is still the best
