Hey guys,
I've noticed a small knock in the car basically since I put the 19s on - whether thats a cause or not, im not 100% as the car was off the road for about 4-5 months prior to the 19s going on.
When in the drivers seat, the knock sounds like its coming from front left, which alert to me bushes, strut tower, wheel not on 100%?
When in the passenger seat, the knock kind of sounds like it's coming from centre of the car, underneath or maybe just a little rear of transmission, which alert exhaust knocking, wheel not on 100%?
I put the car on ramps last nihgt, checked the exhaust bolts, the right hand side was a little lose, which is now tightened, checked ALL wheelnuts, and ensured they are tight (which they were).
Fun Facts:
I'm not sure if this will help, but when in accelleration the knock doesn't appear to be as evident, but that could be due to the exhaust being louder than the knock?
Doesn't happen on idle, just over bumpds.
I have a *slight* feeling it could be the exhaust right at the tips, knocking on the chassis.
Any insight?
