Front suspension clunk
Posted: Mon Mar 09, 2009 8:11 pm
Hi,
I have a Corsa B 1.5D (no anti roll bar).
The front suspension makes a slight, almost subconscious clunk sound when going over rough road surfaces at low speed. I can't tell from what side but its defiantly quite defined as the front.
I've changed all the ball joints and checked the obvious such as exhaust.
The noise can be stopped completely by deflating the tyres to around 15psi but obviously this is too low for the tyres. The noise is also worse when carrying a passanger.
The only other cause I can think of is wishbone bushes but they look fine.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
