when turning hard rights ie bends,roundabouts i get this loud clunk clunk clunk clunk clunk but if i press down on clutch it stops just checking that its the driveshaft as i dont want to buy one and that not even be the problem

since it's on right turns that would mean it needs the left driveshaft???

Yep, Definately gone, Same problem as what I had,

If you go round corners with your foot off the accelarator or clutch down its fine, only when accelerating around a corner?

Cost me £49 for mine to be changed,

Cheers

all you have ti do is take you weel off then undo the hub nut then undo the bolt on the bottom ball joint on the wishbone push it down it will pop out and the drive shaft will slide out the hub abd the gearbox mate and do the reverse when you put it back together remember to lock the hub nut when you have done ye if you have any probs call me on my mob 07960253626 or if you have any probs mate
