Keith

Mike lives about 50metres from where i do.  Im sure he'll be available for you to see him tomorrow/saturday when you come up to collect my car :happy2:

His car never moves anyway :innocent:

Tomorrow is perfect to take a look / drive / log but the car goes for a new exhaust on Saturday and I am away for a few weeks.

I very much appreciate your interest and support Keith!  :happy2: :happy2:

There will certainly be time in March where I can leave you the car to tweak.  :happy2:

Mike

Do have some knocking at low speeds I'm trying to diagnose though. 

Me too  :sad1:

I've got it down to ARB bushes or top mounts now (already fitted SuperPro controll arm bushes).. I've got some Powerflex ARB bushes on the way then I'll get some new top mounts  :happy2:

Recently done top mounts (December) and brand new ARB bushes and clamps.  :sad1:

Ordered.

£26 per side + a few pence/quid for nuts

Even if it's not the source of the faint knocking it can't hurt to do them.
