rikkirw 0 Posted August 18, 2004 Report Share Posted August 18, 2004 As the subject header says i am getting a loud bang from the rear when going over bumps.I have'nt owned the car long and have never had sports suspension on a car so it might be normal?But i suspect the rear shocks have had it,can anyone tell me if this is normal or not?

mightyvr6 0 Posted August 18, 2004 Report Share Posted August 18, 2004 I had something similar which turned out to be a leaking damper (koni) and the suspension was bottoming out and banging against the bodywork. Link to post Share on other sites
