All...I have an odd sound that emanates from what seems like my rear onside suspension.

It only happens when cold and seems to disappear after a mile...:-s

It sounds like I'm dragging a load of tin cans behind me...

Any ideas....anyone had this before...suppose it could be exhaust if it goes when warm...

I have had something like this which did indeed turn out to exhaust alignment. There is so little room for everything under there that a small deviation can cause all sorts of knocking/rubbing/vibration.

The solution generally seems to be to gently re-align...


...with a large tyre iron!

Ahhh yes - I am a little sad if this is the case as I only just had some sports exhausts fitted and aligned...

...maybe it was a dodgy speed bump :-(
