Re: Help!!!
if its the left hand side the noise is coming from thats the near side, and the near side is the shorter driveshaft as thats the side the gearbox is on.
O/S, Offside = Side furthest from the curb
N/S, Nearside = Side nearest to the curb.

Re: Help!!!
the left hand side of the car is the nearside and since you said the noise comes from the left side thats why i said the left sides the n/s.

Re: Help!!!
its reet mate u blagged my head with what you had written haha.
in all honesty mate i would change both driveshafts coz if one is now knockin its obviously worn and the other driveshaft is the same age and that will be gettin worn and its just a matter of time before that goes.
unless you know one was changed and not the other
