Feb 2011 at 11:34 Can the drop links give a knock when turning if they are worn .I have a pair of S### 1st line ones on . So if they are worn will replace with these. I don,t get any sound over speed bumps . http://www.vauxhallworldparts.com/partsearch/partdetail.php?partid=342 Good price Thanks Steve

Also fit the rear bushes too

Could be. But how are your wishbone bushes?

From what I've seen on here, when those 2 things are worn, you can get clunking sound but that's more like when going over humps etc. Just changed both on mine and sounds have gone.

Is the knock sound when you turn the wheel or when the car actually moves round? Do you get the sound over speed bumps too etc?

Feb 2011 at 11:51 Thanks for that guys....The wishbones are only a year one and have been check when i had the camber been 3 weeks ago and all good. Only get the sound when moving and turning ...it,s on the drivers side. With them being the 1st line ones i know that they are not the best anyway.
