AntonyG 0 Report post Posted October 22, 2011 (edited) Yeah checked that it's odd I can't fault a thing, even did the diff bush and yet i get a weird knock from under the car when I gently brake going down a hill or cornering down hill.. only happens once in a while on certain roads .. odd :s Have you checked the rear brake pads? Aftermarket pads sometimes dont locate 100% and this can cause 'clonks'. Seen it many times on imports with non genuine pads. Also can you replicate the nosie by pressing the brake pedal and switching between 'D' and 'R' Assuming its Auto ofcourse A few other avenues to think about other than suspension components.
