loud clunking noise from underneath front
very loud clunking noise, and feeling of movement, from underneath nearside front of van, happens at low speed when steering hard left whilst levelling out after going uphill out of an inclined front drive up onto the road... otherwise ok to drive... any ideas?

Re: loud clunking noise from underneath front
Check anti-roll bar drop links on either side. These can snap at the bottom and get caught up when turning etc.
The broken one can be temporarily removed but should be replaced asap. otherwise the van has a tendancy to roll further over on corners and it won't pass the next mot without it.
Assuming it is that!
