rear end noise
« on: 04 July 2007, 13:29:46 »
Ive noticed a couple of times this week when I pull away & only when I pull away I can hear a noise coming from the rear Its a type of 'clonk', Ive taken everthing out of the boot but that wasnt it !,Its had new springs, I got underneath it last night & noticed that its got rear drop links (is this right?) ive had my fair share of dodgy front drop links!(sorted now) so could the rears be playing up now?

Thanks
