That_Supra_Guy Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 Got an 04 fiat panda that I've had for a few years (it was free, don't judge) that's developed a slight issue. I'm flogging it for a half decent daily and want the issue resolved, if it's nothing major... Basically, when taking off in 1st/2nd there's a high pitched juddering/vibration sound from the front nearside. The only thing I have to go on is the wheel on that side has a considerable amount of back and forth play when moved with my hands or with the wheel nut wrench. The wishbone main rubber bush has a fair bit of play (and noticeably perished) but also noticed the driveshaft can be 'clicked' back and forth if that makes sense? any ideas what the issue may be? driveshaft issue? or bush issue? Many thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Roger NE Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 Wishbone? Thought they had MacPherson Strut suspension . . . I'm no expert on Front Wheel Drive cars, but would have thought it was your CV Joints on the driveshaft. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no idea haha, Lad down the road mentioned 'wishbone' haha, not an expert with all the suspension terms I had a feeling it was something to do with the driveshaft...hopefully nothing too major.
