I just fixed this on my Saab.... on my car the right rear upper shock mount
had loosened, allowing the shock some vertical movement... it only occured
over bumps. I have Bilsteins, so it was easy to tighten up with a wrench and
an allen wrench. If this is the problem on your car, you should be able to
easier tell by taking off the right rear wheel and having a helper jump up
and down on the rear bumper while you watch the shock mount. If it isn't the
shock, then you'll be able to locate what it is this way, as well.

I bought one off eBay last summer for about $40, new. That was a great
deal... they usually go for at least twice that. I got the plastic 'coverlay'
type, that looks stock.... however I haven't gotten around to putting it
on... wife's car, and I'm lazy :-)
