Re: Front Suspension Noise - Knocking Posted by Doug W [Email] (#2371) [Profile/Gallery] (more from Doug W) on Wed, 22 Aug 2018 20:59:34 In Reply to: Re: Front Suspension Noise - Knocking, Doug W [Profile/Gallery] , Mon, 20 Aug 2018 17:56:16 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
Locked down the airbox by installing two new mounts. It's better but the noise isn't gone. I've found the heat shield above the exhaust is loose and rattles against the body. The shield is rotted around the fasteners (common). Not sure how to fix it. Giant PTFE washers maybe and some sort of nut over the corroded studs on the bottom of the body.
It's annoying - The front end is NEW and it drives GREAT, there's just a knocking that sounds like the control arms or steering rack is about to leave the car; but alas everything is tight!
