Uneven Road Surface and Getting a distant knock from the front.... - Vx-Mad-G - 22:nd-Dec-2016 Im suspecting its the front Drop Links/Stabiliser Rod... Would anyone agree/disagree? Also, seeing as ECP have up to 69% off, im thinking about ordering a couple. There are 4 brands available, are they all about the same or is there any that I should avoid? Q-Drive; Lemforder; OCAP TRW. Many thanks, G. RE: Uneven Road Surface and Getting a distant knock from the front.... - Vx-Mad-G - 30:th-Jan-2017 Guys, need some help. Changed the drop links on the weekend but still im getting that same noise. Where do I look now?

On straight surface its perfect. Sounds like drivers front.

Uneven Road Surface and Getting a distant knock from the front.... - Rusty2009 - 2:nd-Feb-2017 Best thing to do is get it up in the air and have it all looked over and checked for any play in bushes etc. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk RE: Uneven Road Surface and Getting a distant knock from the front.... - sheppy1 - 2:nd-Feb-2017 Yanno what... My car seems to be doing something similar! More of a distant rattle though from somewhere in the front but only when going over bumps Sent from my STV100-4 using Tapatalk RE: Uneven Road Surface and Getting a distant knock from the front.... - Vx-Mad-G - 9:th-Feb-2017 Any ideas what it could be anyone? Could it be ARB bushes? RE: Uneven Road Surface and Getting a distant knock from the front.... - bannan - 5:th-Mar-2017 It could be your brakes. I had this problem. Find a road where it does it, drive over without your brakes pressed, drive over it again with you brakes pressed slightly and see if it makes a difference. Vauxhall changed the caliper carriers for an updated version and it fixed the problem. Basically the pads were rattling in the caliper over rough roads but with the brake pressed it stopped. Hope this helps Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk |
