Hey guys i'm hoping if any of you might have an idea of what this clunking/thumping type noise might be. It happens when i go over certain bumps or go around corners, it doesn't happen all the time but majority of the time it does and from what i can tell it sounds like it could be to do with the diff or something connected to it. My mechanic has checked out the shock mounts in the boot as i thought it could of been them but they were fine, he checked the ball joints in the sway bar and they were fine aswel. I'm just hoping it's not gonna be an expensive thing to get fixed whatever it is as it's driving me crazy!
