Suspension noise persists after removing and replacing shocksand struts by a mechanic. I say it was the stabalizer bushings all along, and never the Shocks/struts/boots. Average road surface causes a bumping sound on the Lt side and mid of car both for front and rear suspension on Driver side.

Check lower control arm bushings and ball joints

Yup, the stabilizer bar links and bushes are the most common cause of such and replacing the struts does not work. Check the lower control arm ball joints as well.
