noise under the car !!!

Aug 28, 2006 6 Replies

Just fitted a new control arm, and have two new brake pipes fitted, and since i have had this done have been gettting a banging nose under the car some times when you brake the some times when you let the brake off.



Have check all the control arm and the pads etc and all seams ok, but some body said to me that it could be my new pipes banging on the boottom of the car when brakeing etc, is this a possible and how do i find out were it is and what can i do to stop it !!



Pipes should be clipped securely- check they are. Listen under the car while someone "pumps" the brakes to find loose runs.

Also, check the wheel nuts are tight- garages don't always remember to do them up.

Oh yeah, silly me!

I forgot all cars are the same. :-)

just to let you know it was a ford probe

Seconded. Loose wheel nuts can make 'orrible noises.
