Clanking noise from coming underneath the handbrake..???

Post by voodoo_jellybaby2k2 »

:lol: bet your all sick of this :lol:

Right basically, if im going along the road, and turn the car to the right (reasonably sharply) ill get a clank/clunk\'ing noise, and then if i turn the car the opposite way i will get a similar clunk/clank\'ing noise. Please note, this noise wont happen if i got right, and the right again (and vice versa) it\'ll only happen if i do it one way then the other!! :?

Now im not sure if im hearing this right, but it sounds like its coming from behind me, and it kind of feels like its coming from under and around the handbrake area.....

This leads me to think if its something to do with the middle-box, or some sort of exhaust component that\'s on the car....???

Yet again, any ideas or suggestions, please let me know

Cheers

The middle section and original backbox looked brand new, but manifold/cat to middlebox looked a bit old, so probs that. Next time its on the ramps we\'ll take a look!
