Posted this in General as well, not sure which was best.
Hi, My 1.4 tdci just developed a clunk on n/s front.
Only happens on rough road, pot hole (if there were a series of bumps, knocks would be in time to this). Not had chance to look with weather today and just wanted to check if there is a common known problem to MK7......Spring? ball joint?, anything known to break or loosen?.(noticed a thread on subframe bolts shearing).. checked obvious wheel nuts and no different feel through brake pedal, steering fine, arch gaps same visually...
Any advise to point me in direction to check appreciated.....Tnx...
Now solved, see pic'.....
