hi everyone, ive only recently started getting this really bad klunking sound.
at first it happend when i turned so i got my car up on the ramp to see that the O/s trackrod end seemed a bit far away from the knuckle so i tried to close the gap but it wouldnt shift too much more, the sound seemed to have stopped for a while but now it just klunks when i brake. any ideas will be much appreciated
cheers

yes, tiebar bush shot or outer driveshaft joint worn. Trog round a big car park on full lock in either direction, should diagnose whether it's the latter.

Jack up both the front wheels and see if there is any play anywhere. I had the same problem, it turns out my top mount was shot and the lower arm was held on with two bolts that were finger tight!
