2008 Fiesta St Knocking Noise

[chriscc]

Hellpppppppppppp

Hi everyone

I hope some one can help, I recently purchased a 2008 ford fiesta st with 12000 miles on, since I bought the vehicle I have noticed a knocking noise on the front left of the car when I turn right and touch the accelerator, I have had this in the garage and they are stumped, they have changed parts of the suspension, steering and also the drive shaft which has not fixed the problem

I am at my wits end and feel like getting rid of the car, knocking noise aside the car is great but I don't want a car that is going to knock every time I turn right

I'm hoping someone can help, maybe they have had the same problem or know someone who has had a similar problem

Thanks

Chris

Drive shaft?

have you checked gearbox/engine mounts, also check exhaust is mounted right.

i take it they checked wheel bearings?

CV joints (depends on the kind of "knocking noise")

[craiglr]

surely when they changed the drive shaft it had new cv joints cnt imagine the shaft alone would have been changed
