basically whenever i go over a bumpits as if air is being relised from the bak of the car
like a squelching noise or something
and recently there is like a cloncing noise when i go over bumps fast
as if something is hitting the bak azxel or something
obiously i want to fix the problem b4 i get a kit or anything

hmm dunno what to say, dampers maybe, if udve lowered the car idve said the spring probably wasnt sitting right. must be dampers.... never known a spring make a squeulching noise

sounds like somethings not right, ive had the suspension out on mine a few times.
have you had much of a nose around? its really strange cos ive had this with lowered springs but never with standard set up.
i dont reckon its to do with your wheels, possible spring sag i spose

gotta be either springs or dampers, take a wheel off each side and just have a nose about, that way your not going too in depth but u may find something.
wheres everyone else

The banging noise on the ack axle is normally from the exahust catching the rear beam. You need to undo the system and twist ti all to make the hoop over the beam sit as high as possible.

no idea about the squeltchign noise, just have a look round.
