cheers, so does it not matter that the subframe is twisted? are you just saying out of alignment would cause the pull and the twist is nothing to worry about? when i mentioned to mechanic who did the dmf he said he marked the holes before he removed the subframe then just place back in same place (pull was there before dmf)....does that sound right? the thud only happens on n/s front when going over speeed humps, more of a knock/clunk noise really....
