Mike_trx Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 Sounds daft but check the door hinges mate, had a similar noise and thought it was CV joint until my mate tried opening the doors and lifting them...felt a bit stupid after it. Replaced the hinge on the offending door and that was that. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

daz gt turbz Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 again another stab in the dark from personal expierence but jack the car up and shake your exhaust. i had a knocking noise under acceleration and hard cornering and it turned out to be my exhaust. like a said a stab in the dark but maybe worth a check!

StarletMad Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 I have this noise too mate... Yeah i guess it only really happens when perhaps the wheels just starts to spin a little when hitting full boost or when you pull away sharply from a junction. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
