woody141288 Posted October 1, 2008 Share Posted October 1, 2008 Hi all, I have a 2001 focus 1.6 petrol. when i am in traffic and i am not applying the accelarator there is a loud knocking noise from the front end. My opinion was it was a CV Joint/Drive Shaft but it doesnt make any noises when turning corners or when i am on the accelarator. it only happens when i am rolling eiva in gear or in neutral and when i accelarate it stops. and also stops if i apply the brake. this noise has got worse. so i need to get it sorted. it is a constent knocking noise as if something is going round. any suggestions, opinions, anyone suffered from this before. anything would be a grate help. thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mintalkin Posted October 1, 2008 Share Posted October 1, 2008 it could be a cv/driveshaft, or a wheel bearing try and isolate which side it is coming from and check for wear Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr.focus Posted October 8, 2008 Share Posted October 8, 2008 it also could be that the one of the wheels isnt tight enough just quick check that mate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
