Ok so i posted a few days ago about a problem im having with 2002 EP3.
Problem:
Lowered the car 35m and started to get a load knocking/pinging when turning both ways even just slightly turning the wheel. Also get a clunk on both sides when going over pot holes or small bumps in the road.
Ok so changed the top mounts and tested the car, all was fine for first few miles no knocking/pinging at all. After a few miles i started to get a knocking noise from front near side (pinging again turning left) but is much better than befor.
I have also found the same side has killed the inside of the tyre off real bad in the last few weeks but all others are fine could this be the problem? ball joint, track rod ends, drop links
Not sure what to replace next i was hoping the top mounts would sort the problems out but has only helped and not sorted it 100%
Posted in wheels section as i was looking for info about the worn inside tyre and what the problem could be.
Many Thanks
Ian
