Doblo sound

hope someone can help me, when i am reversing to the right there is a clunk sound coming from the drivers side.
the doblo is only a couple of days old.
I previously had a doblo 1.9 jtd and this was also happening in that
so is this a problem do i need to take it back to the garage?
does anyone else experience this and what did they do the fix it?

Re: Doblo sound

Might be worth finding out how much it will cost to hire a similar vehicle for your holiday incase the stealer fails to fix your fault. Mention this to the service manager when you speak to him on Monday - it'll let him know you're not to be messed with.
