Guest topcat 7 Posted May 14, 2008 Share Posted May 14, 2008 But theres always a but. Got a knocking noise coming from all sides of the suspension when going over bumps at low speed . Ive read other forums on this site and ive checked the sub frame bolts and the drop links all seems fine, so i was stumped. so i took it to my garage and my bloke there is also stumped. If anyone has any theories id love to know it would be much apriciated;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DannoSupra Posted May 14, 2008 Share Posted May 14, 2008 I had a tapping noise coming from my brake pads because someone didnt fit the silencing pads... they were on UK Spec one's Are your dampers getting sweaty/wet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest topcat 7 Posted May 14, 2008 Share Posted May 14, 2008 Well as im a newbie. here we go ive owned two FTO's and after having both of them wrote off in 7 months ( not my fault one was an old bloke of about 80 who thought it was a good idea to drive the wrong way up a one way street, and the other was a student, not that i have anything against either!) so i thought what the hell lets get the car i really should have got all along. Apart from the knocking and the light that keeps telling me i have a bulb gone the cars GGGRRREAATTT !!!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DodgyRog Posted May 15, 2008 Share Posted May 15, 2008 I am surprised no one has mentioned the rear boot rubber. They seem to be the culprit of knocking on the the back of alot of Supe,s and its always the last thing people think of because we all think the worse;) http://www.whifbitz.co.uk/supra-toyaccess.htm The boot rubber kit £15.51 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
