peasey:
evening all, im just wondering wether any one has come across this before? when my front suspension compresses whilst driving im getting a rattling scrapping noise ? i cant make it happen by bouncing it when stationary and i have had a good look around underneath and cant see anything untoward so now im scratching my head!!! any ideas lads?

muddyjames:
the wheel isnt catching on the wheel arch or the bit of plastic under the arch? This would only happen whilst travelling and not stationary.

Do you have bigger tyres than normal?

piggysteve:
Mud flaps catching ?

muddyjames:
mud flaps on a disco! yeah right!! :lol: Only Dr Ed's disco has mud flaps, only because he bought new ones last week!! Cant think of when I saw a disco with mud flaps come to think of it.

Thrasher:
Piglet has 4 of them.......

However .... check yon wheelnuts, the radius arm bolts, the nuts/bolts in the shock tower, the shock nuts.... basically anything that will move when travelling. The bounce check is no test as you are only moving up/down, not diagonally.
