Hey Solman...Did you also feel shaking on the steering Wheel? I had a similar issue on my hhr. Everytime that I pressed the brakes, I feel a clicking,clunking noise, in the same area as you describe, and also a shaking on the steering wheel. I thought that was the Steering column. I inspected below the dashboard, and the column itself and guess what? A 1/2" nut that conects the steering column rods was loose!!!! I just tight it, and no more issues!

Hey Solman,
I too am looking at doing the moog endlinks and Energy Suspension greaseable poly swaybar bushings. In my search for a how to on replacing the swaybar bushings, I came across this info:
DreamHRR put them on, states that he loves them:

DreamHHR says clunk is back, told it might be the aftermarket poly bushings. Replaces aftermarkets with OEM (non-greaseable) bushings and clunk is gone: https://www.chevyhhr.net/forums/show...1&postcount=26
