I've got an occasional suspension rattle on rough pavement in the front. I've uploaded a picture of the top of the strut inside the engine compartment. There appears to be space between the bearing dust cap and the upper spring seat - I think that's what they are, if I'm reading my Chilton's right.

Should there be this gap? Could it be the source of the noise I'm hearing?
