Hi there guys, just signed up to the forum today as this seems like a good place for advice. I have a 2012 Scudo with only 95,000 Kms. Was a pilot vehicle in northern Western Australia so has spent most of its life going very slowly and in straight lines.

But it has a problem...

It has a loud 'thumping' noise which seems to be coming from the rear of the vehicle and gets faster as the van accelerates. Seems worse around right hand corners and especially if it's been sitting for a while. Checked the rear springs, all ok, bushes seem ok, nothing coming through the brake pedal so I assume the discs are ok. Steering is fine. No play in the wheels so wheel bearings seem ok. I'm at a loss. Bent chassis? (hope not!)

Any advice on what else to check would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance chaps.

Alan
