j1mb0b1 Posted February 5, 2009 Share Posted February 5, 2009 Hi all, The supe is wanting some more money off me i think !! When i turn into a road both right and left turns i'am getting ONE slight knock from under the car, It sounds likes its coming from under the footwell. It started not much time after my girlfriend drove into a big pot hole and says "It may have bottomed out" then a few weeks later i have this knocking any ideas guys???? cheers jamie..

bignum Posted February 5, 2009 Share Posted February 5, 2009 It could be a few things tbh, i`d check subframe bolts 1st then start looking at bushes etc, can you feel the knock through the steering at all? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homer Posted February 5, 2009 Share Posted February 5, 2009 Sub frame bolts is a first check for this, the symptoms you describe are exactly what you'd get when they are lose. Very easy to sort if you have a decent torque wrench and some basic sockets. If it doesn’t solve it then get back to us Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nic Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 Also make sure all the suspension arm bolts are torqued up. Details HERE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mas Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 (edited) Has the car been lowered using lowering springs only and not the complete coilovers?! I had the same sort of problem with my other car and turned to be from top of the suspensions not sitting in place properly. wasnt the supra though.

I think the car is lowered very slightly, As some people have said it looks low but not sure how would i tell ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
