going to take the bolts out too see if it stops as the car drove perfect except for the clonkinging noise at start up
I should add car has not been used since newent :-[

bit worried about driving the car 250 to 300 miles to Daz with the tapping noise any suggestions ie car transporter etc are they loads of money or is there any alternatives was thinking AA but i would have to go with car and have a good excuse why they should take it there :-\
