Hey, I looked up Lithuania, Kaunas on the web and it looks like a nice place. Many very old buildings.

I didn't want create a new article. So I am posting my issue here
I have a problem, some kind of sound hears in cabin. That sound gets when I drive on bumpy road and when turn wheel to left and then turn it to right. Sound looks like a some crack or click and don't know how to describe it. I think it could be absorber mount buering, but dealer told that buering looks as new.

Actually I am not sure at 100% that could be mount bearing, but it looks like it sounds. For ex. when I spined wheels to right end and starting drive back, hears some click sound from drivers side absorber mount part. And it sounds almost every time when driving on bumpy road. Sound is like obtuse metal clicking. I've ordered mount bearing, I hope after replacement problem will be solved.

Sounds like the mount. Not much else up in that area to make that noise. Just to be sure, check the sway bar end links to make sure they are not broken. I think the Caliber has a front anti-sway bar.

Tomorrow I will get a part, I guess maybe they will change it on saturday. This repairing isn't very hard and not so easy. I think it could take about an hour.
Today replaced air filters. Cabin's and engine's, looks like americans do not use cabin air filter. Most of them arrives without cabin air filter.

I think if it has chill zone, it has cabin filter. I haven't looked at ours yet to see.
