dodgy noises from car.maybe suspension parts or brakes?
 
Hi guys right I'm having a few problems with my car now few different noises. Firstly when I press my brakes I get like a tiny thumping noise from the rotation of the disc/wheel is this just the discs as it only does it in 1 place? Secondly when I'm stood still in car I turn the steering wheel and there is a harsh thump when I rock the steering any ideas?I've check that the shocks are tighten and there fine.I got the car in march 2010 I put new wishbones and track rod ends on could they of gone again? Thirdly when I hit a pot hole or any bumps in road there's like a little bang could this be the drop links or something to do with the wishbones?but there don't seem to be any play in the wishbone ball joint. :s and finally when cruising around 2250-2500 revs there seems to be like a rattle.I looked under car and moved gearstick lever and it touches my exhaust why would it be touching the exhaust?anyone had any of these similar problems and what did you do part from scrap the car? :D thanks for any help given

The thumping noises your describing sounds like it could be wheel bearing and or top mount :(

rotatory thumping could be a bent hub as i have that

or a bend wheel as u hit a pothole (doubt this though)

turning steering and it thumping could be a snaped spring

gearstick mite just be loose, or exhaust loose, or heatsheilds moved, or rear engine mount slack/knackerd

hope this helps
