This winter whenever the temperature drops below freezing my rear suspension, particularly on the right side seems stiff and it feels like the car bottoms out when going over bumps. When the temperature rises the problem goes away.

Check the rear struts, when it is warm push down on the rear, if car bounces, then strut is bad. ALso inspect strut for leaking fluid.
