calmcdermott Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 My car has started to make a knocking noise over small bumps, when I go over speed bumps as in with just up and down motion it's fine but when over bumps in the road the noise is there! I don't know whether its the pads, anti roll bar or drop links, what would be the most obvious thing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
k13r4n Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 I had a knocking noise my exhaust was hanging from the manifold though when I had my feesty check it's not that otherwise I would suggest it's one of your above listed possibilities Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calmcdermott Posted November 19, 2012 Author Share Posted November 19, 2012 Ok tar, my dad had a crawl under the car and checked the exhaust but no knocking there.... Also I forgot to add, do all ST's sound like they're exhaust is blowing in the middle? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanGersFord Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 I had that and it turned out to be my wheel bearing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calmcdermott Posted November 22, 2012 Author Share Posted November 22, 2012 Ergh hope not, il have to take it to a garage on Saturday, still under warranty though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanGersFord Posted November 22, 2012 Share Posted November 22, 2012 Obviously mines just a base model fiesta so im guessing the st500 would have better quality wheel bearings lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calmcdermott Posted November 23, 2012 Author Share Posted November 23, 2012 Well I was thinking with the wheel bearings there would be like a whirring noise as if they were waring out and when there's no bumps I'd fine :/ I'm taking it to a garage tomorrow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanGersFord Posted November 23, 2012 Share Posted November 23, 2012 I didnt get any whirring noise but I found when I stopped one time that I was getting a kindve burning smell coming from my boot and it was because the wheel was rubbing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
