Hello - I've got a 98 900 that makes a crunching noise when going over bumps when it's real cold (5F). As the car warms up the noise lessens even though it's still cold out. The first time it happened was over a speed bump and I got out and pushed on the fender and couldn't get even a hint of it of course that was much slower of a movement. Is this a sign that the struts are going? One of the inner fenders is cracked but I hear it seemingly out of both sides. If it is struts and it doesn't happen when warm, is there much harm in driving it? Thanks, -meld
