#1: banging noise Author: robclowes, Location: Crewe/WiganPosted: Mon Jul 23, 2012 1:48 pm ---- I have a banging noise coming from drivers front. It mainly happens when i turn left. Had passenger lower arm done for mot and just had both dropbars done. Any ideas?

#3: Re: banging noise Author: miller-94, Location: ScotlandPosted: Mon Jul 23, 2012 1:57 pm ---- Is it clunking or an actual bang? If its a clunk then its most likely the top mount bearing, I got mine replaced and the clunking stopped! The guy showed me the old one and it was completely shattered
#4: Re: banging noise Author: robclowes, Location: Crewe/WiganPosted: Mon Jul 23, 2012 2:11 pm ---- clunking. Will check tomorrow. Any ideas on price?

#6: Re: banging noise Author: DanT, Location: Torbay, EnglandPosted: Mon Jul 23, 2012 4:24 pm ---- I'd guess top mount too, had similar thing on my old saxo, the actual top mount isnt usually very expensive (between 15-30 quid at a guess), but the labour to remove the strut and replace it does bump it up slightly if having it done at a garage.
