Forums Forums Enthusiast Forums A - Z Autowirral loud noise coming from back of car

prolly just a bush,if its a tinny rattle it may be the exhaust tapping the axle/heatsheild

If its more of a clunk it may be the bush,and uve said ur mate looked at it and thought the strut was hitting the arch? did he fix it?

snapped damper,possible but hope it isnt

and there may be more things

he didnt .. he just said what he thinks it might be

are ur rear tyres wearing uneavenly,is handling unpredictable?

if answers to those are yes,go to a garage,if not,then do what u want,but it may fail an MOT

I heard that the toddle sprocket reguarly need tightening on these cars.

case solved ... i think

thanks to dazza's xpertise

bit of plasic came loose of the bumper which i didnt know about

case unsolved

the noise is coming from my exhaust, looks like its misfiring every now an then. only happens when the car has been runnin for 5 mins or so.

So it misfires on speedbumps only?? thats odd,check ur leads are on ok at both ends

some times when the baffels get hot they they rattle, is the pop like a backfire? put your hand over the tailpipe and try to hear for leaks.

its like a backfire yeah.

i had a look under the car, and when it does it the whole exhaust pipe shakes

is there any black soot on the exhaust near the joints? if so that is where the leak is? have you had any high revving latley as this would make the baffels become loose

could be the revving then

i dont do it often (honest )

i'll have a look for the soot 2nite.

thanks
