Knock Knock, Whats that noise!!!

[TommoXT]

Im trying to find out wot could be causing a knocking noise on my 7. seems to be loudest when turning to the right, i was told by a garage it was just the suspension sending the noise through the chassis but im not convinced. wondering if its a common evo trait or just mine being awkward

thanks for any help

Struts are common for this mate after 40k or so

Not heard of it on a 7 tbh though, but the 6's are prone to it :???:

Its a very common problem with the good old Evos

Could be a number of things tbh, but as Waggy said the struts are the most common we've had a couple of E7's in with strut problems, might be best to get it into somewhere and have it checked out

Where are you based?

I had the same problem with my tommi, I changed the strut & the noise was gone :-)

is it an easy fit or garage job?

Easy fit tbh but instead of going out buying a strut, try changing the top mounts first

It was so easy i actually enjoyed getting my hands ever so slightly dirty!

I paid £150 for a full set of TME struts which had covered about 8,000 miles

I remember the knocking noise on Fuglys evo 7, that only seemed to do it on left or right turning. Ended up with new struts and top mounts.
