f*cking peice of French shit - Matt - 25-09-2012

Got a massive banging from the rear. Like someone is hitting it from underneath with a hammer.

It's not all the time. Just random. I thought it was on corners but it's not. Also not just on bumpy roads

I suspect something has broken big time, what can it be?

Rear beam mounts? Or f*cked beam?
Bad luck dude hope you sort it


RE: f*cking peice of French shit - Matt - 25-09-2012

I thought it could be the beam mounts, but I thought it would be a constant thing with them. Like over bumps or cornering?


Would f*cked shocks cause a banging? As I have a feeling mine might be one their way out....


RE: f*cking peice of French shit - Joe - 25-09-2012

is it your back box? mine did this when it snapped off litterally on the back of the box


RE: f*cking peice of French shit - CJ_Derv - 25-09-2012

Could be shocks but more likely to be rear mounts, ive had bushes go on a shocker which can cause such noise


RE: f*cking peice of French shit - Niall - 25-09-2012

First thing to do is MTFU, make a coffee and get under it and look for something obvious like something loose. Could well be a siezed shock or loose wheel bolts......


RE: f*cking peice of French shit - Matt - 25-09-2012

Manning the f*ck up isn't possible as I'm at work till Thursday. Litterally all hours of the day as I'm covering 4 shifts in two days.

May try and get out after lunch and see if anything is loose.
It's not the exhaust. I had a feel of that, and it's solid. Only thing I can think of is the shocks or mounts. I've got solid mounts to fit. But I currently have no tools to do anything as my complete tool box is 50 miles away on loan :/
Anyone free Thursday to fit mounts and shocks lol I'll pay in man love!


RE: f*cking peice of French shit - Niall - 25-09-2012

For you Matt?


No I'm not.


RE: f*cking peice of French shit - Matt - 25-09-2012

Such a dick haha.

Just checked the mounts are actually still connected haha. Nuts are tight on the inside. But pissing down and I'm meant to be at work haha

When pushing down on the rear you can hear the gassy shock sound but that's it. I'll see if I can get done time to check under the car later when work get quiet


RE: f*cking peice of French shit - puglove - 25-09-2012

seems very strange, nothing catching the wheel? spare whel carrier? just some ideas


RE: f*cking peice of French shit - londondan86 - 25-09-2012

To check the mounts you will need to jack the car up from the sills to let the beam hang down, you will then see if the mounts are still in one piece.

RE: f*cking peice of French shit - swampy - 25-09-2012

Mine developed a bang like that a few years ago just as I was pulling on to the m25 by the dartford crossing
One of the bolts had fallen out of the shock mount!!!

RE: f*cking peice of French shit - Matt - 25-09-2012

Fuuuuu liam


RE: f*cking peice of French shit - THE_Liam - 26-09-2012

Can't believe no-one had said that already tbh lol


RE: f*cking peice of French shit - Matt - 26-09-2012

Meh. Me too tbh haha


RE: f*cking peice of French shit - Grant - 27-09-2012

It's your abs plugs smacking against the underside if the car whilt driving. Your gonna ed doe and Samass your car soon...

Or the chassis leaving the beam behind?


RE: f*cking peice of French shit - Matt - 30-09-2012

f*ck off haha. I genuinely think the diagnoses of "it's French" is good enough right now haha


RE: f*cking peice of French shit - Dum-Dum - 30-09-2012

I wouldnt worry, youll work out what it is when it falls off.


RE: f*cking peice of French shit - Matt - 30-09-2012

Meh if it falls off then I know it's the mounts haha


RE: f*cking peice of French shit - Matt - 22-10-2012

Right so new coil packs and spark plugs didn't sort it. It's better but not fixed. When driving it felt like there was a restriction. A blockage I had to put my boot down to get past. Over tightened aux belt cause this? Because my steering goes slightly iffy at the same time?


RE: f*cking peice of French shit - samass - 23-10-2012

fuelling issue isn't it? changed your fuel filter yet? checked the in tank pump?


RE: f*cking peice of French shit - Matt - 23-10-2012

Haven't changed the filter as I didn't have time, will be done tomorrow.
What do I look for pump wise? How do you know if they are f*cked?


RE: f*cking peice of French shit - Poodle - 24-10-2012

Eh what? Your aux belt is causing a banging at the rear of the car...? I know your mechanics aint great, but that's a seriously tenuous link...
