    This seems to be normal on all Gen 2 3's, Mazda australia is coming down to look at my mums SP25 and the new CX-7 as they have suspension clunks and knocks too.. stay tuned, ill update you

    not so much clunks..just hear every bump you go over with the radio off..its weird ..went away over the weekend started off on 300kms got back on 1500.. 1000kms service friday so will be putting the suspension and nav issues to them.. the nav got confused for about a hour dont know if this is normal? was looking for the M1 kept telling me it was left ahead in so many meters then that point would go past and did it over and over for 80 kms till i actually reached the M1

    Hi,
    I too own a 2010 MPS with about 1000km on it and I can also detect some kind of bump noise coming from the right rear suspension. I intend to get mazda to have a look at the next service. It only seems to "clunk" when I go over some large bumps, but definitely sounds louder then it should be.

    the only annoying thing in mine is the noise when i change gears.. a clunky type of noise also. have been told it is normal as well, i don't know i would expect a 40k car to quiet of the showroom floor.

    I've got the same noise!

    And as usual the overhead drivers lights are rattling.

    Was going to bring it up on my next service.

    Just thought it was the way i was driving.

    The noise is intermittent however.
