'clonking' noise from rear drivers side

Featured Replies

Noticed this noise on friday whilst on route to silverstone. More plainly audible pulling away from stationary and gets faster with speed BUT not audible if moving at 60mph!

Also does it going round corners (right ones to be precise) so i'm starting to believe its a wheel bearing. Just wondered with my very vague description if anyone else had any ideas before i start stripping the hub!

:lol: shouldnt laugh really, changed my brake pads a couple of days ago and a couple of the bolts were far from tight :shock:

Aye, when i lowered my rear more the other week i managed to drive about 10 miles with 8 finger-tight wheel nuts....

We've all (mostly) done it!
