DON'T ignore that clunking noise!

Post by Dico »

As I did...

I came off the motorway on Saturday (with my 7 year old in the car :shock: ), pulled into a petrol station, and my n/s front end dropped to the floor! I had had a clunking noise for a while (and clicking on full lock) and have a cv joint ready to fit. Anyhow, seems the clunking noise was coming from my n/s front control arm as it has snapped clean off at the ball joint!!!
I'm thinking of purchasing a full kit and doing a proper job, avoiding the cheapo kits out there. Can anyone confirm that this Delphi kit on ebay is a quality brand please?

So, don't be an idiot like myself and get any noises/clunks/bangs sorted!
