Had my Sport SS for 6 years now with LPG and it's been cheap comfortable driving. But one niggle has been the clunking front suspension. When I asked dealer to sort it, the answer was they all do that and he knew of no solution. Surly everyone who has one of these is not going nuts with a clunk clunk every undulation! Please tell me someone on here knows of a solution.

They do wear out bushes rather quickly so I'd start looking there

Had them done in past and it reduces but does not eliminate. I understand it is something to do with the stability control. My argument is: LR, it did not knock when I bought it so what do I need to do to put it back to same now it does knock and they don't seem to have answer. £50k of car sounds like man with a hammer under bonnet and if they want me to buy a new one then surely they should know how to sort their own kit out. Annoying.

Anti-rollbar bushes are the usual suspects for this.

However, if there is still clunking after those are done, it may well also require the main bushes doing too.
