Fun sounds

Well I might as well ask. The sound has been making me curious. I'm not very concerned since there is no difference in the feel of the suspension... but anyways here it goes

When my car is left to sit for an extended period of time something interesitng happens with the suspension. Once I resume driving every time i hit a slight bump i can HEAR my suspension. It sounds like it releases a bit of air.. almost like a very quick "SCHOOK" sound. it continues for a bit and then once i've been driving for a bit it seems to stop. Other people have been in the car with me at the time and have all confirmed it does indeed make strange sounds for a while and then stop... but none of us can figure out just what is causing it... like i said i havent noticed any change at all in handling, shock absorption, bounce, etc. just the sound.

so anyone know why it sounds like i have a wammo-air-blaster for a suspension?

i get creaks and groans if she's been left to sit for a while, but no "SCHOOK" noise that I can recall.

Better change your headlight fluid....

Actually, I'm guessing it's the struts... just throw some grease on them, let them sit and see if it happens again
