Ok, this only happens when im going over a speed bump or im turning a corner reasonable sharply at like 20+ mph.. It makes this weird clunking noise. Anyone else have a guess what it is? Not exhaust knocking.. its asif the noise is from the spare tyre in the boot moving around but it's not that..

check your upper shock mount for play in the bushes, you might need to remove some of the boot carpet to access the mount.

Also make sure that nothing is rolling around under your seats.

my dad had that in his kia, and although it only had like 11000 miles on the clock it was the bushes on the rear suspention.
[the previous owner had 2 big fat dogs they liked to take every where]

more like it was down to cheap ass materials being used to make kia's.
