Discovery front axle noise...

Feb 22, 2005 3 Replies

Hi,



I searched the group but could'nt see an answer so here goes....



On pulling away and at low speeds I can hear and feel what can only be described as a 'clunk' from the drivers side footwell of my '95 Discovery (300tdi). It's coming from that side of the front wheel. I'm thinking CV joint/wheel bearing but can anyone help me diagnose it? Whilst I'm fixing it, what other jobs are worth doing whilst in that area as a matter of course?



All info/help appreciatted.

I had this happen to me after work on the swivel, turned out to be that a retaining bolt had fallen out of the brake calliper which was now moving forward and backward. I found this out after I lost the brakes when the small brake pipe from the flexible to the calliper fractured. NOT nice!!!

Crikey. Cheers. I'll take a look asap. The trip around the M25 could become interesting!!

I Know I was on the M6 at the time it went, I was slowing down for a slip.
