I've been working on a 1997 Astra Van 1.7TD that's been stood for over 2 years. (New track rod ends, rear cylinders, front disks and a couple of brake pipes). Took it for a test run and notice a loud clonk noise around the front nearside. There's no play in the wheel and like I say the track rods are new. I can also get it to make the clonk noise if I drive in a straight line and quickly swerve the steering from side to side. It does it even if it's freewheeling along out of gear. Any thoughts welcome.
