Vh sle clicking noise from rear help?

[Olddog81]

Hi guys my vh is making a weird clicking noise sounds from back half of car usually when turning. Or bumpy surfaces. Is this the uni joints or the cv in the tail shaft? Or something else? The springs are fine I have checked them. Also when I press the brake pedal if makes a clicking noise in the rear? Any help appreciated thanks

sounds like the diff if it's making the noise on turns
Have you got an LSD ?

So it is possible then.

Turned out to be the left rear brake piston seized and the caliper was flapping around hence the clicking noise when braking. Phew! Better than being the diff.

My VH wagon had a similar problem. Whenever I went over a speed hump there was a massive metallic crashing noise that drove me insane. Turns out I'd left a box full of tools in the back. It was easy to fix too - a set of good earplugs did the trick.
