#1: Suspension 'clunk' Author: MutilateTheDead, Location: DerbyPosted: Fri Apr 15, 2011 12:33 pm ---- Hey guys, couple of things ... First off, when going around left corners (and only left corners) and over rough roads I get a slight vibrate through the whole car and steering wheel as if something is loose, maybe a wheel bearing? Not sure if the fact it only does it around left corners helps with finding the problem? Secondly ... When i first start my car and pull off the drive i get a clunking sound (guessing it's from the suspension?) this happened when i first got the car lowered but stopped for about 2 months and now is back, any ideas? Cheers in advance

Mine did that previously Where it made a noise when I set off and also vibrated through the steering wheel over rough roads.

another possibility could be a seized strut top bearing but usually you would hear these more on turning when stationary like going on full lock to the left. wouldn't normally expect a vibration from most suspension parts even when knackered, so a good check underneath required!!
