Why?

 

[lee M4RSH]

Just wondering lol.

 

[imprezaworks]

Lol. I don't think it's illegal but it is frowned upon.

 

[ADS_V6]

have you been driving with the bonnet up,maybe the knocking is someone under the wheel arch :smile:

 

[lee M4RSH]

Will be your face under there one day of you keep on.

 

[ADS_V6]

With my face under there i prob couldnt find the noise tbh

 

[imprezaworks]

Sold and going tomo afternoon to the chap who 'actually' viewed it and not the winner who was clearly a tit

 

[lee M4RSH]

Thought as much. What you buying me nice with the cash?

Just took mine out for a blast to the shop.
Was trying to figure out what the clunking is. It definatley something to do with the steering. If I full lock left to right I can get it to do it at the furthest point of each turn. Especially when stationary but it will do it at low speed turns as well. Revs go all over the place aswell on full lock but all cars do that, right?

 

[imprezaworks]

All cars dont rev on there own mate on full lock. Im trying to remember an old thread with the reving you mention.

 

[lee M4RSH]

I thought it was normal as its using a lot of power to move the hydraulic pump at full lock, hence the revs being added to compensate the power?

 

[ADS_V6]

cv joint or power steering pump on its way out?

 

[imprezaworks]

Mine dont mate, well not that ive noticed. And if it does it would be minimal,

lee do a search on knocking on full lock

 

[lee M4RSH]

Dno then. Cant be arsed with it anymore. Am just going to take it to be done and that's it. No point me keep guessing at it. Piece of s**t car.

 

[ADS_V6]

mate dont stress,whens it booked in?

 

[imprezaworks]

Paid for and gone.

Sad times.

Mine does this mate, I think its the steering rack.

 

[lee M4RSH]

Hmm. Bushes or new rack required?

 

[Mr Plums]

Not sure mate, mine sounds like it ls jumping a tooth.

 

[lee M4RSH]

Is booked in for Tuesday to try and source the problem with the juddering so will get them to have a look at the clunking at the same time.
Hopefully all will be sorted.

 

[lee M4RSH]

Can you feel it under your feet?

 

[ADS_V6]

could be something small lee hopefully,cv boot,ball joint etc i hope its not the rack

 

[lee M4RSH]

Whys that, are they expensive?

 

[imprezaworks]

I would say cv or driveshaft

 

[Mr Plums]

Can you feel it under your feet?

Yes its quite loud, its like a loud snap/click.

 

[imprezaworks]

Cv

 

[lee M4RSH]

Ye, dont think its driveshaft, would be a constant clunk if it was I reckon.
Will leave it up to the mechanics anyway. Bored of thinking about it lol

 

[ADS_V6]

i would not stress until garage have seen it Lee,you gonn wind yourself up and lose interest in the car.Im sure itll be ok

 

[imprezaworks]

If it clicks on full lock turning its goosed

 

[Mr Plums]

Cv

I hope not or that will be a gbox and a driveshaft ive bought that's fucked.

 

[imprezaworks]

Get it checked mate
