Knocking/clunking noise's???? HELP!!!
Hi
I own 05 sti.. The problem is when I reverse off my drive theres a knocking noise, then as I'm driving through the gears I hear it again from rear and sometimes the front?? It's mainly when I take my foot off the accelerator it does it. It ain't the shocks cos I've had them done as I thought it was this!!!
Any light on this problem would be much appreciated
Thanks
If the noise is only there when you apply the brakes it's probably the pads sliding inside the calipers, not OE items.
If the diff click/clunk is only in reverse it's probably the diff cogs meshing when you engage reverse and drive.
You may well have had the shocks done but did you get the mounts checked? There is a bearing in the top which may have gone?
If it happens when you take you foot off the loud pedal then it could be weight transferring forward and could be the drop links. Try a bit of copper grease first

Be methodical and check from back to front
