Title: Wierd Noise
Post by: samclark3232 on 09 March 2011, 00:29

Ive recently lowered my 1.8 non turbo golf and i have some kind of wierd vibration/noise when i give it a boot full or go down a bumpy road :( i have taken the car up on a 4 poster ramp at work and the antiroll bars are quite close to the driveshafts but i dont think they are the problem, i have purchased some ajustable droplinks anyway just to be on the safe side but other than that any suggestions? lol

Thanks

Sam

I think you have answered your own question, sounds like the anti roll bar is catching the driveshafts.

if arb is touching you will get some marks in the driveshaft, is there enough room between the wheel and front strut? 9 times out of 10 we use 5mm spacers to stop the wheel touching the strut, wheel bearings ok? lower = more stress on certain parts
