I'm getting a noticable rear clunking when I'm turning slowly to the left or right. It only happens when I'm turning, and from what I can tell it only happens when I'm at low, parking lot speeds. Possible it happens at higher speeds, but I've never heard it. I recently swapped suspension. Thoughts?

I have the same mystery noises???? I am quite shure its the muffler banging on shit and rubbing on the wheel since it only dose it when the big tires are on it.The American Republic will endure until the day Congress discovers that it can bribe the public with the public's money. -Alexis de TocquevilleOriginally posted by Fusion

clunking during right hand turns eh? i had the same problem. check your CSB (center diff bearing/bushing) or it could also be your cv joint in the rear axle in which case you might as well buy a new axle. its an easy job, at least a lot less tedious than the csb. good luck keep us informedNo more e30s for me.

Do you have a LSD? My wifes e36 (3.23 LSD) makes clunking noises sometimes while turning at low speeds.
