Strange knocking sound please help!!!!

[gsyglanza]

I was wondering if anyone has any advice or know what the problem with my car could be, every time I reverse or slow down after booting it, a strange knocking sound comes from the back right of my car, I was thinking the suspension is knackered but not too sure, anyone got any ideas???

Cheers callum

Could either be a wheel bearing or I would say the coil spring may have snapped get it jacked up and have a look at the top of the coil spring

I don't think it would be wheel bearing or it would make like a clicking sound all the time wouldn't it? Okay mate will do cheers for your help

Not allways mate it may not have gone just may be on its way out when u drive straight can you hear any kind of whirring noise from that area??

Ah okay mate, no none mate the sound only happens when I'm reversing or the car like jars when slowing down if you get me

I've had a smiler knocking noise for a while, found it saturday night/morning.

Turns out it was my Whiteline Adjustable Panhard rod. The nut had worked slightly loose. Tightened it up and lock tightened it. The noise disappeared.

Worth a try, thats if you have even got an adj panhard rod lol

That was lucky for you then mate, nah I don't have one, what else could it be??? :/

Maybe your exhuast rubbers are knackered and allowing excess movement?
