Title: Clonking noise from the front
Post by: Martin_1962 on 08 April 2009, 20:19:43

I can feel it through the steering

Wheels tight
no play in steering

clonks on bumps

What do I need to buy now?

Thanks

If no play in wishbone bushes or top of struts, suspect droplinks as others have said.

Definately not wishbones - doesn't wander and they are new.

Will check top mounts in morning as they were apart in December.

Drop links - that is about the only thing not changed
