Hi All

I have a knocking noise coming from the rear of the car when cold. It happens when changing gear and putting my foot on the clutch. It also happens when coming off of the revs??

Any takers?

Cheers

Mark

Knocking? It's not the over-run is it?

Yup - agreed - sounds very much like diff mounting bushes.
