Knocking sound - kentiiboii - 23-10-2014
I've got a knocking sound on the gti6 coming from drivers side front.
when I got the car I changed a lot of the front suspension/steering components and since the knock I've changed more but I still haven't cured it.
Here's a list of what's new...
Strut top/bearings
Wheel bearings
Drop links
Arb bushes
Track rods
Track rod ends
Wishbone with new bushes and ball joint
I still haven't cured the issue though and now I'm lost.
It's knocks when I pull off, stop, steer and sometimes going over bumps...

Could it be engine mounts?
RE: Knocking sound - kentiiboii - 23-10-2014
All engine mounts have been replaced with baker bm solid mounts

Just an idea although I no doubt bet you've checked. I had a random knock/rattle issue from caliper being able to move the tiniest bit in the caliper/pad cradle. Just a random idea. Otherwise I'd struggle to think what else would cause it unless some major component :/
RE: Knocking sound - Eeyore - 23-10-2014
In my experience either its P Bushes, or the nuts on the top of the strut in the mount. Did you threadlock them?

ARB clamp on the P bush bolt not located in the chassis slot letting the ARB bounce and knock
RE: Knocking sound - Eeyore - 23-10-2014
ah yes cully! that sounds like a good one too!

Will double check though.

few of us are thinking maybe pbushes. Even though they only done 3k miles.
Anyone got part number for oem partner bushes?

RE: Knocking sound - Eeyore - 23-10-2014
Im not sure the pbushes would be ruined after 3k :/ As you say... it is an odd one!
RE: Knocking sound - Toms306 - 23-10-2014
Are your small P bush bolts still there? After Sam lost one I did as well.
RE: Knocking sound - Eeyore - 23-10-2014
yes check all your pbush bolts! D:
RE: Knocking sound - kentiiboii - 23-10-2014
Could be the pbush bolts, we've just been looking at deggs car tonight and he's lost one of his bolts too...
