Guest Posted March 14, 2007 Posted March 14, 2007 Have a pug406, on a 53 plate.Coming home from work it started banging and clattering at the back. Was not happening on straight roads, but sounded awful going over speed bumps and any bumps in the road.Have had a squeek on back wheel when turning but this has been intermittent (sp).What could it be? Is it suspension or summat to do with wheel?I hate cars.....will have to take bike to work tomoro Quote
Guest Posted March 14, 2007 Posted March 14, 2007 Whats a spring.....and yeh I know its a bouncy thing...is that the suspension.Sorry for being so blonde Quote
Guest David Posted March 14, 2007 Posted March 14, 2007 Yeah thats it Viks, the only other thing I can think of are bushes on the anti roll bar Quote
Guest Posted March 14, 2007 Posted March 14, 2007 Think David's probably right - suspension/worn bushes...Moral of the story... when in 'car land' always buy german...Swedish & Jap good as well, but the Krauts make the best motors... Splines on the end of torsion rods on the 205s used to wear out - but I'mnot sure if they'll have followed with that design on the 405...You got a good local garage QV? Quote
Guest Posted March 14, 2007 Posted March 14, 2007 Just spoken to stu and he thinks its the mighty boosh He is gonna have a look and maybe his brother will do it, if not I've got my garage, who invoice, so dont have to pay yet Quote

Guest Posted March 14, 2007 Posted March 14, 2007 Cheers everyone.......sounded really serious from inside the car.How much are they to replace? Quote
Stu Posted March 14, 2007 Posted March 14, 2007 depends which one is gone and like i said best to do the other side too so they wear evenly Quote
Guest David Posted March 14, 2007 Posted March 14, 2007 There are two control arms on the back that I had replaced, it cost me about £90 at a small local garage, I don’t know what a main dealer would charge Quote
Guest David Posted March 14, 2007 Posted March 14, 2007 I didnt realise you got to fix the car as well Quote
Guest David Posted March 14, 2007 Posted March 14, 2007 So the normal day job is just part time around the site and Vicki's vehicles I hope you charge by the hour Quote
