can u guess this sound?
coming from the back sounds like its from the trunk literally but i checked theres nothing in it not even a spare nothing lose or rattling around in there. its like a squishing rubber sound and hapens anytime i hit a decent bumo or rough terrain. it does not have to be a big bump either. the car rides pretty decent so i cant figure it out. i have almost new tires set at good psi rotated and balanced every oil change( i have the lifetime package thats y i get it done alot its free) also whenever im on a rough road or snowy road it rumbles i cant tell but i think its coming from front and back idk if thats normal for un smooth ground or not or if both noises r connected?
how many things could it be and whats the most probable culprit of these noises?

does the rubbery sound happen year round or just when its cold out? mine does the same thing when its cold out, and its something with the seal around the trunk. doesnt leak or anything, just sounds like wet rubberbands. the rumbling sound i cant help you with, but good luck.

During winter, mine does the same. My guess is that snow and ice gets in the trunk grove and around the back window and makes noise when I hit some bumps. It goes away in spring or if I take all the snow/ice off the trunk and window reall well.

The bushings are the little "O" rings that the sway bar pass thru. with time they get lose and the bar moves in them.
For the cost, well the parts shouldn,t be expensive, from what I heard, its not that much in labor cost.

I have a simmilar squishing nose form the rear as well, so far ive deduced that its the struts. When the gas and oil is cold it doesnt move as freely and with 94k on them I figure its time to replace them. Its like a swishing/squishing sound, but not a hard rubber squeak. More an annoyance than anything.

does it sound like the jack could be hitting the trunk metal? if it is i have the exact same problem...but i dont think its the jack bc its pretty secure...and it does it year round for me but the car rides and handles fine so i dont bother
