I have an annoying clunk from the left side front. It happens over some bumps and sometimes when making a right turn. But it’s hard to replicate.
The struts are not new but damping feels good.
Top mounts have new bearings. Steering is smooth.
Road springs are new from S4P
Drop link joints are not worn.
Bottom arms were swapped. No change.
Strut top nuts are tight.
I have replaced a few struts but never had an issue.
No visible witness marks.
Gearbox engine mount is new. No change
Gearbox Dog Bone rubbers look ok but it probably does need renewing. Getting suddenly off throttle is harsh but does not make the noise.
The 1.2 petrol made a jingling noise when its drop links joints failed. This is nothing like that.
Brakes fully checked over. Nothing loose. Wheel bolts ditto.
Exhaust is not catching anywhere.
Any ideas?
