RS mk1 suspension knock
Im getting a knocking coming from the drivers side of my mk1 Focus RS. After getting it up on ramps the suspension was all tight with no obvious knocks. Everything was where it was supposed to be. It only happens over bumps and its starting to really piss me off.
Could it be the shock absorber as thats where it sounds like its coming from? Any ideas?
Any help is appreciated as I want to get to the bottom of it.
Cheers

no more Granada's for me
get a crow bar or big screwdriver and see if theres any play in the suspension area. could just be a worn bush. i had this on a clio an it turned out to be a worn ball joint though
