I know it's been a couple months now but has anyone figured anything else out about the suspension? I have a 2011 awd sls sport. Was kind of worried about having to replace the rear because of the issues they had and of course my car is out of warranty. When checking the brakes etc noticed some stuff on the suspension not 100% sure was leaking or if was dirt etc so in case of course I need replacements in the future wanted to know what's my best move. Thanks

Rear shocks are likely leaking. Get the KYBs and revised bump stops or modify the existing ones

I'm in the process of replacing my rear shocks with the kyb ones I got at my local Napa. I ordered the upgraded bumps at the dealer. I'm waiting for a warmer day here in the east coast ....

Take a look at www.MonsterFactoryParts.com

(I've recently ordered numerous fender liner clips and screws and such to help keep them attached under the massive barrage of rocks and stones my exploits kick up.)

The shocks they're listing say "shock W/O AWD, W/ Sport. My vehicle is a SLS AWD sport...I can't find any that says W/ AWD or does it not matter?

Does not matter. See first post in thread for details.

Hey KuroNekko..Does it apply to the 2012 Canadian model? I am currently at 57 000 km (warranty of 60 000 km here in Canada) and there is like a clunk sound coming from the rear every time I go over a bump...could it be this or most likely a sway bar link or something like that?
