I keep getting a clunking sound (as if a springs being released) from what appears to be the front suspension, only happens at very low speeds (forwards and reverse) though..any ideas what this could be?

Thanks

Does it happen when applying the brakes?

Have known it to be the brake pads moving in the calipers.

Could be the front drop link, the bushes on them are known to go.

Sounds like a good excuse to change all the bushes
