For a while my cavs had a knock on the front,it happens when im going onto full lock i get quite a loud bang/knock.
Its doesnt seem to have got any worse really until the last few days....Ive drove round in a circle on full lock it doesnt do it,but as soon as i start turning the wheel usually whilst not moving it bangs!
Could it be a balljoint? Or maybe my tracking is out? pulls very slightly to the right.......
Also last night i booted it in 1st and got a rumble from the drivers side front wheel!!!
Did it this morning aswell,but doesnt in any other gear.......could this be related?
ALSO i seem to have a lot of travel in the gear lever,i dont mean play,its quite tight in gear but it seems when i put my foot down the gear lever comes right back as if the whole engine/gearbox is moving?
Starting the think all the above are related and maybe its a dodgy engine mount?
Already had a new front gearbox mount,and the engine mount at the back of the box (near gear selector) looked fairly new when i had to drop my subframe to change the gearbox sump plate a few months back.
Any ideas anyone??
Thanks in advance
