Title: front suspension "klonks"
Post by: mc9 on 03 July 2009, 07:37:13

1999 2.5TD.

When driving over speed bumps or any pothole, the front suspension emits a load klonk. You can almost  feel the impact, quite alarming really.

Any obvious reasons for this? And is it easy / cheap to fix by me or garage?

Cheers

Just found the "suspension noises" thread in Common Problems.

Sorry  :-[

Mine had the same problem, slight knocking from one side. Changed the drop links and still the same, replaced front shock's and fitted another used top strut mount i had in the shed, and no more knocking.   :y :y
