strut top mounts

[oliver07]

Guys im sure this has been covered but cant find the link
Just had coilovers fitted with new strut top mounts passenger front is clonking like made seems to be from a standstill or when going really slow on a turn
whats your ideas on this.

is it like a twangy spring noise? if so top mount bearings are shot.
If it's more of a knocking then it sounds like something wasn't bolted back up right.

its like a knock thud sound the car is too low as its catching on every speed bump getting it lifted
on saturday just wanted to be on the ball before i go kicking off

 

[topher]

how low is too low? is it the arb banging on the driveshaft?

[oliver07]

yes  the exhaust is hitting the s/bumps and this metal strip going across under the middle of the car
but this noise is definatly coming from the wheel area n/s front

id say the drive shaft was knocking/rubbing on the ARB
