Suspension noise

Hi all.
I’ve been playing wack-o-mole with suspension noise from my 02-996tt with 36,000km.
Noises occur over small bumps and cracks in the pavement.
First it started with left front. I started cheap and replaced up the price range finally each part having little to no improvement. Finally the LCA solved the noise. Then the right side I changed the right LCA first and the noise was solved.
Now I am getting an thud and rattle from the rear and sometimes sounds like the front. I’ve inspected and can’t find anything loose.
Except for the upper strut mount, every part I replaced looked fine. I’ve tried the pry bar technique on loaded and unloaded components.
Is there another technique for testing suspension components?
I’m thinking swaybar links but haven’t seen much about them going bad.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
