rite, went for a little drive this afternoon in the sun and i had the roof off and my passenger noticed a knocking noise when i let off the gas.
so i went home and tried to make the noise again..
clutch in, 1st gear, foot on brake, handbrake off.
if you quickly lift off the clutch but dont let it stall you hear this knocking noise as the engine is put under stress
ive checked the mounts and they all seem a ok
when you stick your head in the top passenger side near the waterbottle it sounds like its coming from just below that (where the clutch bleed valve is)
and from underneath it sounds like its coming from the diff/gearbox.
after that we jacked up the front mount so there was no engine movement and the noise had pretty much vanished it was still there but you could ony hear it if you had your head very close.
i dont really want it to be a new gearbox really as i cant afford it atm 🙁
any ideas?
