Clunky noise from rear
Took my car to the dealers on saturaday as I have a clunky noise coming from the rear.
Symtoms are:
Turning into junctions / exiting roundabout at slow and/ or steady pace while in gear, there's a clunk (metal on metal) noise from the rear. Its as if somethings moving from one side to the other.
Also
Rolling down a slight hill, in 2nd / 3rd gear, @ 15/20mph, when I let off the throttle, I get a knocking back and forth noise. As if something is torque back once Iv let off power.
Mecahnic stuck her up on the ramp and checked things out. There's excessive play in my RH drive shaft bushes, so he is going to replace them. Everything else looked in good order, inc diff bushes. He's going to have a good look at the diff when its out too.
Hopefully this will sort the above symtoms. Is there any suggestions on what else it could be while the car is in.
Was going to be fitting V3s this week, but not sure if thats a good idea until things are sorted (or they may try to blame it!)
Thanks
Bryce
