matt~black Posted April 28, 2011 Report Share Posted April 28, 2011 I have an intermittent knocking noise that sounds like something catching on the wheel but it doesn't happen all the time and doesn't happen when the engine is under load either accelerating or engine braking anybody any ideas before I investigate further??? Thanks ,,, Matt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkStryder360 Posted April 28, 2011 Report Share Posted April 28, 2011 What wheels front or back? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max69vk Posted April 28, 2011 Report Share Posted April 28, 2011 Check the rear bolts on your lower wishbones are properly torqued up, I had the same issue & it drove me nuts for days. Even after initially torquing them up correctly they neede checking again after a few hundred miles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Give the wheel a good shove in every direction, see if there is any abnormal movement.If it sound like the wheel is catching it could be the arch liner coming lose and hanging down somewhere Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
