this is a tricky one . . .
The car is riding bad and feels loose when you hear the noise, worse in cold weather and the problem comes and the noise comes and goes tell me it may have to do with the internal valving of the strut. Does turning up or down the valving adjustment make any difference(shim stack or a loose belleville washer/spring disc can cause a noise)? Try to run the strut at various settings and report back your findings.

How are the rest of the rubber bushings on the front-end of the vehicle?

I can't be 100% certain as I am diagnosing this over the internet with supplied information.

Good luck.
