Hey all

in need of advice again

have a clunk coming from the front when I accelerate
it's not a cv joint cuz it's not a clicking all the time. It's just one clunk
when I pull away

any advice would be brilliant cuz the clunk is doing my head in.
Cheers

Anti roll bar drop links starting to go? Sounds like it might be a case of get it in the air and have a good shake/tap with a mallet of things

Put it up on the ramp at work. Poked and proded. Found slight play in o/s trackrod end.
The O/s droplink is abit suspect so I changed both trackrod ends and droplinks. Car feels
alot better but clunk still there so will change top mount.

Thankyou so much for your help
much appreicated.
