G'day All,
I have a VE Calais 2006 (Auto 6cyl). Haven't had any issues except a dead battery for no apparent reasons, fixed now though.
Recently when I'm traveling along at any speed, if i go over a pothole or bump a 'clunk' metal on metal noise sounds from underneath the car.
It is becoming nerve wracking, as metal on metal never sounds good at all. The only possible reasons behind this that I can think of is:
-Suspension
-Springs
-Engine mount
It's out of warranty, so I'm dreading any costs involved in putting it into Holden for 'servicing' which is usually little more than guess work and me spending more money on parts to replace what they think it might be until they get it right.
Has anyone experienced something like this and can pinpoint the issue or make recommendations?
