id recommend PB blaster. and not saying for sure on your situation but mine sounded like it was on top also. it took me walking beside the vehicle and someone riding in the trunk to find it was actually the bottom.

That problem is from i think they said 80 batches of their struts were infected, u have faulty struts.. u can send em to me and ill make sure they get taken care of.. there is a recommended location that they list on their site which is like 5min away from me that they say to dispose of them.. ill pay to get em here if that helps then ill make sure there get disposed of for ya brian..
