I'm sure this question has been asked before. I have a 99 Solara SE-V6 auto. I got it a few months ago with approx 97,000 miles. However, the front tends to bounce, which indicates to me that the struts need to be replaced. Also, the passenger side struts/suspension rattles like something is loose. Any suggestions what that might be, and am I right about the struts? Please help out.

Just replaces the struts and then go from there

unless your mechanic is skilled enough to identify what it is by listening to it in a test drive...

I doubt its coming from the struts... bring it to a mechanic and have them check it out. It could be anything loose
