knocking from under passengers side front when driving

Post by twerky25 »

Hi I have a hightop fitted with avo shocks and springs so quite low with the weight of it running std 14" steels

now when driving I get a knocking coming from under passenger side front when jacked up I cant see anything obvious could it be a droplink prob as low

drivers side has no noise

I know on mk4 golfs etc with drop links they have to be shorted etc when low any pointers would be great

I could be that your that your shocks are bottoming out. Did you fit them yourself? Also, when does the noise occur; i.e. whilst going over bumps or around corners?

it could also be that the bushes from the droplinks are worn out?
