Clunk


Padgett

Recommended Posts

Am getting a clunk when I get on or back off, mainly in lower gears. Sounds like it is coming from about the rear of the console. Is this something common with a manual trans ? Simple fix ?

From the REAR of the console?  I'd be looking for missing exhaust hangers or otherwise damaged exhaust pipe(s)

 

An alternative is that the sound originates in a certain place, but presents acoustically "somewhere else" due to reflection or conductance/resonance through the body.

The trailing arm mounts have a tendency to rip loose and clatter, theoretically if the passenger side one was clattering it would come from that direction.

This car is completely rust free. Really.  It does have a Magnaflow exhaust which may be screwed up, suppose I should raise it up and see if anything is shiny. Just wondered if something was common.
