Maccaman Posted May 14, 2010 Posted May 14, 2010 Just had a very strange happening with the Zed. Leaving work and suddenly heard this clunking noise above the radio sound. Well I stopped and had a look around & under but nothing obvious. The noise was still there on pulling away and was a rhythmic clunking which sounded like it was coming from the rear (always difficult to pinpoint). This continued for about a mile and then disappeared. Listened for anymore clunks when I came over the speed bumps near home but all clear. Very strange Quote
350ash Posted May 14, 2010 Posted May 14, 2010 I'm no expert but could it have been the handbrake sticking on? I had this on my old focus a few times if I washed the car then didn't drive it for a while causing the handbrake to seize on. I'm sure other people will be along soon to tell you it's not the handbrake and tell you what it actually could be! Quote
Maccaman Posted May 15, 2010 Author Posted May 15, 2010 Found the reason for the rhythmic clunking when I realised I had a flat tyre. A bolt or similar was in the inner tread of the rear nearside tyre. All fixed for £19 so well chuffed. Quote
