Default Clunking sound strut

I hear what sounds like the left rear strut clunking (banging). I saw a notice of a "Service Bulletin" from Volvo regarding noisy strut. But I do not have the ability to see what they say the fix is. Does anyone have access to this information???

SERVICE BULLETIN:7604 NHTSA ITEM NUMBER:10003399 [/b]
MFG Bulletin Date: 20040209
Component: SUSPENSION:REAR
Bulletin Summary: NOISE FROM THE REAR SHOCK ABSORBERS MAY OCCUR WHEN DRIVING OVER SMALL ROAD DISTURBANCES. R VEHICLES . *TT THIS TECH NOTE SUPERCEDES THE PREVIOUS TNN DATED 7-23-03. *TT THIS TNN SUPERCEDES PREVIOUS TNNS76-04 DATED 7/29/2003 AND 1/22/04

I have heard the fix is something about putting in a spacer/shim or whatever you would call it to take up the space.

Thanks for any help.

A bad sway bar link will make the same noise.

I have seen strut mount seperated from a S60 before... once u pull out carpeting inside trunk should be easily tell if it's broken.
