Default Strut noise

I hear a metallic "*****" from the rear when i go over certain bumps. Like a raised manhole cover or the low curb at the end of my driveway. Not a major hole but rather a sudden change in elevation of the road. It sounds like a broken spring? strut mount? stabilizer link? Checked them all and found nothing. I have a 2018 GT3 PDK
Anyone else encounter such a noise? Thank you. in advance

Never heard such a noise, but if the sway bar is tight, and the coils look fine, then maybe the exhaust?

remember that the rear suspension includes helper springs, if you have checked your rear swaybar and the linkages are all tight, then it is highly likely what you are hearing is some movement between the main and helper springs - i.e normal
