What's going on with you then Gambit?

GOOD NEWS Ok so I took the car to another garage today ( one of our customers ) we took it on a road test with back seats out with the tech sat in the back, it's not the top mounts its the shock bottoming out he found this out by jacking up the car putting a big bar under the wheel and lifting it up and down you could hear the shock hitting, so I need to wind out the bottom bracket which mounts into hub so that the shock has more travel, not a big job just got to take the wheels off release the bottom lock nut and twist the whole shock until shock bottom levels out with bottom of the outer bracket :) this will then give the shock room to travel. BAD NEWS Also had another modification done to my car today one that I didn't put on my wish list but will end up costing me due to some inconsiderate w*#ker who decided to reverse into my o/s front wing and leave me a nice dent :( then decides to bugger off and not tell anyone, just got to love the common decency held by fellow humans of this world. So to sum up my day in one word S*#t But thanks to you guys who posted any thoughts as to what it might be.

Would a damper sticking make a knocking noise/clunking? Top mount is bolted up tight no movement in this? But does sound top end of the strut, I just don't get it as the front is great not getting any knocking from here now just coming from back, I for one am very confused, I'm going to take it to another garage tomorrow for a second opinion as we might of over looked something simple or not so simple, what ever it is I just need to get it fixed as its peeing me off big time, first lowering spring causing me grief now a set of coil overs, I'm starting to opt for putting it back to standard and putting up with the range rover ride height :(

Oh no there in but the !Removed! are still knocking! Lol Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Well if you was in my car you hear the !Removed! knocking noise

Oh but I have now, what's that I here coming ??? Booooommmmm !! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Ok the coilovers are fitted:) but now the front knocking and clunking has gone but now it's happening on the n/s rear :( , took it apart and made sure all nuts and bolts were tight, which they were? Very confused has anybody got any idea to what it could be, it sounds like the top mount area high up? But these are tight too, is there anything it could be I'm over looking?

A little crazy I'm going for all out mental hospital candidate lol :)

"But I do live in the middle of no where ask Stanton500 he's been here caught him gangbanging one of the poneys But he brought me beer so I don't mind" Lmfao ( you got some funny sense of humour ) :)

Home delivery is a joke sometimes, I had a laptop delivered to my house at the beginning of the year, asked my mum to wait at my house for it, any way she went to toilet came back down stairs to find it left on the floor by the patio doors in the snow! So I unpacked it when I got home from work only to find the disc player didn't work, so called Argos told them what had happened and that it was just left outside in the garden (£500 laptop ) asked who signed for it and was told Simon signed for it? Who the f*#k is Simon as he don't live at my house wtf cheeky bas*#rd delivery bloke signed with some random name what a joke! Any way rant over good luck with the weather tomorrow and delivery I'm keeping my fingers crossed for both of us ;)

I'm absolutely disgusted with this pure act of evil once again on the streets of Britain! But I think this is all I should comment on this act of inhuman violence.

£20 please ( Gambit I bet your going to reply I got £20 on it at the bookies ) now I'm definitely guaranteed it either way lol

That's funny lol, my little girl is five and comes out with some really random funnies got to love them, she puts a massive smile on my face without even trying :)
