got a bang sound help

[houston]

force the brake piston back, then apply the brakes, do this a few times and see if it cures it.

no need to remove caliper, just force the pads onto it using a lever through the hole in caliper

Does it do it when you accelerate hard aswell?

If so check tightness of rear wishbone arm bolts and subframe bolts.

[123sparkiemarkie123]

what nm tightness should the rear arms bolts and sub frames be?

[Purely VAG]

Don't know as havnt got software on this laptop.

Use a crackbar and youll need 18mm and 21mm socket. Make sure theyre touch tight with that for a start. Don't want to be driving with them loose.

[123sparkiemarkie123]

kool, think there tight but will check again

[123sparkiemarkie123]

I get a noise like a knocking sound when i move off after the cars been sitting for a while like in the mornings leaving for work, reversing out driveway then up a small hill just out my street i hear this noise and also after getting in the car after work too i get this noise.. It seems like its comming from straight down the middle? near the front passenger seat. Does anyone know this sort of thing? My mate in Kwik Fit said it might be down to my CAT ? its the same cat since the car was originally made. only 1 prev owner.
