Going over bumps slowly there's something clunking around from the drivers side. I looked at the mounts theyseem ok gonna tighten the struts up tonight any other ideas?
#18: Re: few problems with girlfriends car Author: Taff!, Location: Havant nr PortsmouthPosted: Thu Feb 16, 2012 5:42 am ---- I have that too.. if you find it let me know! I'm convinced it's something within the door but everything is all tight.
#19: Re: few problems with girlfriends car Author: XSIcheeseman, Location: OrpingtonPosted: Thu Feb 16, 2012 5:50 am ---- Great lol I'll find the problem
#20: Re: few problems with girlfriends car Author: XSIcheeseman, Location: OrpingtonPosted: Thu Feb 16, 2012 11:14 am ---- Anymore ideas?
#21: Re: few problems with girlfriends car Author: Taff!, Location: Havant nr PortsmouthPosted: Thu Feb 16, 2012 11:20 am ---- Is it more of a rattle or a clunk? I have a clunk but think that will go once the rear shocks are changed. rattles could be a heat shield, doubt it's exhaust. Check in the sapre wheel for the jack and make sure that securely located and not bouncing about in the cage. Check in the boot where the wheel brace is that it's secure and that there's no bits in there floating about.
#22: Re: few problems with girlfriends car Author: XSIcheeseman, Location: OrpingtonPosted: Thu Feb 16, 2012 11:25 am ---- It's a clunk coming from the front , I'll give it a better inspection at the weekend but just looking for ideas
