Rear knocking

[rcourtney]

Been a while since I posted here, but suns out and the Lotus is out of hibernation.

There is a knocking sound from the rear when turning (at higher speeds). Am pretty sure it’s from rear drivers side ..
I don’t see anything obvious that might cause this.

Any ideas?!?

Apart from the obvious checks for security on suspension joints, diff mounting bushes and rods, brake callipers and components and the tightness of the hub nut and wheel nut, it could be that a shock absorber insert is loose in the rear suspension tube. Tighten the nut at the top of the tube through the rear spring to fix.

Does the Propshaft touch the Chassis.

Do you have cv joints? They can knock on fwd cars when they are worn.
