Clonking noise when turning...

Post by Kirsty »

Hi!

I'm new here and to make matters worse have nooo technical knowledge about engines etc so please forgive me if I do/say something daft :oops:

Driving our 1982 2.1lt Westfalia (automatic) today I noticed a worrying clonking sound from underneath at the front when I was turning right. Happened a few times. Not sure what this might be nor how serious...

Please can anyone help this damsel in distress?

Thank you!

Thank you! Will get the CV joint checked out.

I did have a look on the forum first but must have missed that thread somehow. Sorry. :oops:
