if its just a clunk check the sway bar end link nuts to make sure they are tight, if they are loose put blue locktight on the threads before retightening.

Talk to Tom over at KW. They're having similar issues with other sets of KWs on E90s. They're attempting to run a testing program and are looking for cars to test in the Central California (Sanger) area.
