Noisey antiroll bar or strut mounts

[marc69]

My SR makes a single knock when the weight shifts from one side to the other on (the very occasional of course)hard corner, it has always done this, I mentioned it to bazzap who thinks it may be the top mounts in the struts.

My 1.4 track car used to do exactly the same, at the time I thought it was something related to the antiroll bar, I have since removed the struts etc to the xe and it doesn't make this noise at all, but the antiroll bar is lowered on this car.

Can an antiroll bar set up make this noise or is Bazzap right?

If he is, is there anything I can do to prevent them from getting worse (apart from cornering very slowly)

have you tried turning the radio up?

have you tried turning the radio up?

Yes, I just want to prevent anything if their is a problem starting rather than out in the frost fighting with the car, i am slowly getting through the faults though with everyone's help and advice. Of course, will the radio now break ?

sometimes fitting a louder radio can help cure noises.

other than that, check all the engine and gearbox mounts, drop links, bushes, balljoints, strut-tops etc.

if there all fine then fit an amp and 6x9's

It could be the ARB hitting something I guess? How close is it to the exhaust?

Easiest way to see if to remove the ARB and see if it still makes the noise!

[meritlover]

or remove the exhaust.
