Getrag Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 I've got a clunk at the left rear that has been increasing lately. I've discussed this with a mechanic friend and he suggested it sounded like a drop-link based on the following: 1. When i go over a bump that is across the road, ie a seam in the tar, that moves both wheels, the noise isnt there. 2. When I go over a bump on the right side, the noise isnt there. 3. Only when I go over a bump or imperfection on the left side only there is a clunk/rattle. 4. When I turn sharply either way to test, it makes no noise either side. 5. Its not the hatch, I know this sound well. 6. Using braking over bumps makes no difference. So does this sound like a possible source of my, very, annoying clunk/bump/rattle going over bumps? Or what else could it be. Ive had sub-frame bolts etc tightened up already. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
