Only kidding ;)

In my car, there is a problem!

Now i know you guys get loads of threads about knocking in the passenger side front suspension and this has appeared on my 'ride!'

Now, i thought this was one of the usual things, loose bolt, cv joint yada yada yada but it has now developed. Evolved in fact!

Now everytime i reverse i get a really annoying creaking! Now this isn't my neck as i look out of the back window, im only a young'un!

Also, every time i turn right it seems to creak like a fecker! Possibly running too. Now i just want to know if you guys might have suffered from this creaking as i want to get it right if i order the parts! My idea's are either anti roll bar or cv joint but if anyone else has an idea let me know.

Chow mofo's :)

If none of the above answers helps, im quite certain its your exhaust!
Look under your car where your car meets your manifold, its almost certainly bent there id say!! and i bet when you accellerate and let off it makes a thudding noise, You need to jack your car up and bend the manifold join back.

Righto, it was the exhaust :) The rear hanger was snapped in half and it was held on with cable ties!

Got the new rubber from citroen for £1.45 and adz fitted it on the road. Thanks people :)

Dan, I think you'll find the conversation went something like...

Dan: Right, I'm going to tigthen these bolts.
Damo: It's a bit dark isn't it?
Dan: Nah that's alright.
Damo: Ok, good luck.

*Dan signs off MSN*

*Damo tells Sax-p that he's tightened the bolts*

Apologies...
