Hi guys, bit of a wierd one, my car clunks when its warm and in gear under acceleration and de acceleration but not much when it coasts..first of all i thought something was loose so i had a look, then i took it on ramps to look underneath and everythings tight including the drive shaft, strut all looks ok. THe noise comes from the front right, i cant think of anything else apart fron driveshaft or even gearbox?!? the car drives fine like normal and the noise comes in like a complete revolution, again backwards or forwards

can any one shed any light

 

engine mounts, gearbox mounts?

 

get it back on the ramps and get the socket set out and make sure everythink is tight dont rely on looking and feel
i had a gearbox changed in a garage and they left the 2 bolts at the back of the cradle loose and that clanged a bit but not straightaway and they got a right going over when i returned
so give it the once over and check mounts with a pry bar look for cracked rubbers also pop the bonnet up put handbrake on and try pulling away in first and see if you get much engine movement doit harshish on and off the clutch and see if it clonks
might sound stupid but have you checked the wheelbearings and cv joints do a circle in the car park on full lock either way

it will be a mount or suspension arm bush

 

thanks for the advice

took it out today and i got nothing always the case, i shall see tomorrow

i checked the engine mounts etc they seemed ok
