Why is my rear suspension popping?
Sharp popping noises may indicate that something is either broken or so worn that it’s causing the suspension to bind up. These kinds of failures will be more common on vehicles with complex, multi-link, independent rear suspensions with lots of smaller links and joints.

Why does my car pop when I start it?
When an engine is running rich, it has too much fuel and too little air, which slows down the combustion process. When combustion doesn’t happen in a timely manner, the exhaust valve opens while the air-fuel mixture is still igniting, causing this explosion to “spill” out of the cylinder, making a loud popping noise.
