    knockinging over bumps?

    when ever i drive my typ-85 CQ over speed bumps, bumps in the road, over curbs or down our hill i can hear loud 'knocking' from the rear. i think its coming from the suspension components, esp passenger side rear.

    any ideas?

    nothing was mentioned on the MOT but its all ways made that noise since i bought it.

      Or drop links if you have an ARB back there (unlikely).

        is that difficult to fix?

        I also get what can only be described as a 'wobble' type feeling from the rear of the car when i'm braking going down a hill turning to the left in a spirited fashion. if that helps identify the problem.



        should i be seriously worried at all? As i say, MOT didn't mention nout!

        EDIT: no ARB on the rear.

          probably rear top mounts as Az said, wishbones bushes worth checking too if no rear ARB


          you should have finished braking by the time you turn in anyway

          worn bushes can cause a "vague" feeling at the rear.
