seen the exhaust crack, maybe the culprit as engine "jerky"?? hope it is as that will be relatively inexpensive to fix. Under impression car was not such a "special". wow that tyre, you have been having fun!!

She is special alright...

eSpecially annoying at times!! 

Hmmm. Think just too much heat/too little support

Looks like it started from the HAZ on the ropey weld nearby.
Custom roll cages/shiny suspension bits/general fabrication work undertaken, PM me.
Top engine mount repair/reinforcement/chocking for cracked chassis and high powered cars, drive in, drive out, 2 hour turnaround.

Ok...so this got real bad after Pugfest. Seemed fine on route.
All makes sense as now found. Me and ruan wouldnt give up once I could jack it up in a certain position to make it knock by giving ghe wheel a.jerk in a certain way.

Turns out dry front nearside wishbone bush bolt essentially. Managed to get a 1/4 turn on it...but was SO creaky.

Wound out, cleaned up and greased up...wound in tight.

Now no creaks, crunches or clunks!! woopwoop

Interesting. So what - you just tightened it up essentially? (once you could that is) As said above, is this something we should al look at? Trying to understand what has happened here.

Maybe the captive nut inside the sub frame has come away from its weld as well?

His is a phase 3 so the subframe nuts are not spot welded theyre just captive. Meaning they can rattle if a little loose. Bad design choice for the newer ones.
On a break from 306oc for personal reasons. If anyone needs or wants me most of you have my number and or facebook messenger
Thanks for the good times guys n gals. I might be back. Who knows.
