Knocking noise only when it rains

Post by Aky »

Bit of an odd one. Mechanically everything is solid, but knocks only when it rains/gets wet on front passenger side. When dry theres no knocking at all. Its had new drop links, struts off a 70k car with good top hats.

Knocks on turning and when stopping and pulling off.
Any ideas?

Anyone?

Took it to two garages, couldn't find anything wrong with it. Rained then next day and started knocking again :(

Sounds like a CV joint but can't imagine why it should only do it when wet.
