NSF HEAVY suspension clonk/knock
#1
Ok, I am waving the white flag.


I heard the beginnings of a knock from the NSF some time ago now. 

But I got on it ASAP, like I do with most things like that, but couldn't find ANYTHING. Had it on a MOT bay, levers in at all angles, nothing.


The brake calliper had a bit of movement, so I whipped that off, packed in grease in the sliders... less play now but no lack of noise.


After a few other things I have tried, adjusting strut brace, checking every nut, bolt, link, connection, replaced the drive shaft etc etc... it just gets louder and heavier...

So I got a Febi/Bilstein top mount and bearing and replaced those in a "I've checked everything else, what else can it be" last ditch attempt.


Annnnnd,..... its still there.   Censored Dodgy


It is a HEAVY knock/clunk as you pull away or come to a firm stop. Both at low speeds.

No knocks/noises once moving.




ANY IDEAS peeps?! Honestly, open to any suggestions now!    Confused
Wishes for more power...
