davev 1 Posted April 15, 2011 it might help if you could tell us when it happens(bumpy roads, turning, all the time, on throttle or off. ect,ect.) we then might be able to point you in the right direction, as the description is quite vague at the min.

Chris_Mi 6 Posted April 15, 2011 My bet would be on drop links. If you jack up the front, remove the wheel and turn to full lock you should be able to see if the drop link ball joint/rubber boots are knackered or not. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
