Default 'Clunk' Noise

Hi guys,

Been sent your way by Dal. for a bit of technical knowledge as to what this noise could be.

I had my clutch changed at the weekend on my Focus ST225 (300bhp) and immediately after I have been experiencing a clunk noise if I am a bit harsh on the clutch, I believe it to be a drive shaft. Race Plus made it clunk quite easy in low gears coming on and off the boost so I have put a more prgressive map on and it has helped a bit.

Going back to the garage is not an option (If you know why please do not say anything yet) but I was just wondering if anyone knew what could be causing it and why. Would it be related to the clutch change? Do drive shafts generaly go straight after having a upgraded clutch fitted? Or has something worn away somewhere and needs looking at?

From a quick google I have found the following but not sure what they mean:

Worn U-Joints
Slip Joke Problems
Spline Tolerance at the gearbox

Cheers all!
