just a quick question, my car has been parked up at college for a few hours, got back in it to go home, and it has developed a knock from the front passenger side, its more of a knock rather than a click, it gets louder and faster as you go along, (obviously), does anyone know if this could just be the cv joint or the actual drive shaft ? or possibly a track rod end ??, thanks

If it was a shaft you'd get steering wheel wobble like the wheels are un balanced.

Had this on mine it started quiet and got louder over the weekend. Got a new shaft was only when I was removing the hubnut the middle fell out and the ball made a runner down the drive.
