JamieT1314 Posted January 20, 2018 Share Posted January 20, 2018 Cheers. I'm leaning more towards the focus. Will get more for my money in regards to age and mileage and ongoing repairs. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scottsdad Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 My car has developed a nice little clunking sound when it goes over bumps, especially sleeping policemen. Fairly sure it's coming from the left front wheel, but can't see anything wrong, broken or out of place. It's murder on slow roads but not a peep on the motorway. It drives fine. Just the noise... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had this it was a piece of the suspension coil that had sheared off and was stuck inside the pot thing at the bottom. Get it checked because it could cause a blow out. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both a possibility for sure. Also consider the bushes. Common MOT fail when they wear out. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
