knocking noise
Ok guys this is exactly what the noise is! Its the driver side front and rear door latches. You need the new updated part! I had the same problem and the dealer thought i was nuts and I wasnt moving the striker ( just would move again later)
So they ordered the parts and after waiting for 3 weeks on back order they put the new ones on and presto the noise is gone!!!!
Proven to work !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank God because every little bump I hit I thought the doors were gonna rattle off!!!!!!!!!!!

I got an 08' 4door w/ a soft top. I get that damn thunk every time I go over a speed bump..Haven't investigated yet (always seem to forget about it once parked), but I'll be looking into it today. I'll try adjusting the door latch, see if that works. But it definitely sounds like its coming from inside the B-pillar....we'll see.
Good thread, hope you all don't take this the wrong way....but I'm glad i'm not the only one with this problem....

The part number is...

One is for the Driver side and one is for the Passanger side...dont have the one for the rear..since I am still waiting on the back-ordered part!

latches
Great let me know how it works out. I only needed the front driver but they replaced both front and the noise is gone. Might as well do the rears as well...they are on back order though!

That's what mine sounds like. Took it to the dealer once but evidently the tech didn't hit the right bumps. He just drove it on the lot. "Could not duplicate". I didnt complain due to the fact that they did some things for me for free that they no way had to. Good shop experience over all and I'll try again the next time I stop by.
