happens sometimes to me if you just started up the car and its cold outside and you go over a bump.. but it goes away after warming up.

I had the same issue and it turned out to be a bushing in the lower control arm on the rear drivers side. Dealer MSRP was 314 but I found a new one on ebay for 130 shipped.

not sure if this is your issue or not
