hey guys another weird sound coming from my engine bay.
only noticed it recently, whenever i slow down using the gears (not compression braking) just dropping down into 2nd taking off the throttle, i hear a little knocking knocking sound, very mild but stillthere. doesnt sound bad but im jst a bit worried. im thinking engine mounts or diff but not sure... any ideas?

hey tim you know what i have the same problem right now, it happends when i accelerate i get this rhythmic knocking comes and goes, thought my wheel was coming loose at first :confused: Checked everything can't figure out what, so i would think thats what i need to get done aswel. Dam gonna cost us a bit i think. give me a call i know of a few good places to get these. and also a mate has a trade account with a few part wholesalers ;)

easy test for CV joints is to find a car park and then go do circles at full lock both ways...
if you get a knocking or tapping sound then they are going/gone..
