My car clunks a little. Any ideas?

[higgy]

Heres another little quetsion. When I reverse my car and lock the steering wheel I often get the sound of a mild clunk from the front of the car. Has anyone else experienced this?

Also just booking in a service. Has anyone used TVR Power, Coventry ? Anygood ?

Are Silverstone TVR gone ?

I got that noise on my 03 T350c, I have a feeling that it is the anti roll bar bushes (only guessing you experts)
As i looked under the car, just behind the front wheel, and it looked to me like there has been some movement because of the dirt worn away about 3mm front and back of the rubber mounting block.
Thats where i'm going to start checking anyway.

mine does this sometimes in reverse, almost sounds like creaking metal?!

Cheers I'll have another look cant be right

Did anybody ever resolve the creaking noise from underneath their cars.
Sounds suspension based to me and is driving me nuts.

There is a previous thread on this, but I can't find it.

Mine was the same and I complained to main stealer who said several sets of bushes could be the problem. Said they lubed them and appeared to solve the problem for a while. But, it's started again

I used to get this when reversing out of the garage, hasn't done it for a while now though.

I used to have the same clonking, turned out to be the top ball joints on the steering, both were well knackered. efin Essex roads!!!

MrJohn - now I see why you emailed me! I had forgotten this thread.

Mine doesn't do it anymore - think it must have been sorted at a service last year - I'll check the invoice but it was sorted under warranty and smaller jobs are not always listed...
