just a lil post..

when i brought ma cinq the owner told us of a knocking coming from under the back but when drivin it it never seemed that noticable to me, over the last yr it has got worse, only seems to knock when i go over a bump or dip in road etc, is so annoyin tho, im guessin is somethin to do with suspension or bushes, if so how much am i lookin at payin? or wat else cud it be? please help!

stressed tinks!:bang:
 
yep, probably rear radius arm bushes.

Mine are on the way out too, they werent that noticable at first due to other rattles [exhaust] but now those rattles have been shut up, I have started to notice the bush getting noisier.

I plan a 'guide' when I carry out the job in the next 2 weeks. [unless somebody has beat me to it by then]
 
Almost certainly the rear bushes. Awkward to get the old ones out, but possible, search of other threads on how to do it. Cost of new Powerflex bushes about £50 a set

£50 for a set of bushes ? i had mine done recently and got em for £14 a piece or set, can't remember which.

pain in the ass to change mind u.
