My TS is making a loud bang in the front when I hit decent bumps in the road, the suspension seems firm when I bounce the front, I'm thinking of replacing the struts, maybe this will fix the problem. Anyone had the same problem?
cheers

Yep, on 220,000km V6 TS, turned out to be tie rods. Wear on the ball joints under the perished rubber bellows/ steering rack.

Great, thanks for the tips, I will check all those parts for wear, mine only has 185,000 on the clock but I don't where the previous owners drove the car, it has a lot of stone chips on the bonnet so maybe its been on the dirt alot.
