Driveshaft knock ?

[dc2r-0636]

Sup guys

Got a problem that's fukn irritating.

I'm getting a random knock coming from my passenger driveshaft or Coilover
I've tighten all the nuts and perches around the coilovers and arms.


Noise happens every now and then, espcially when I angle my car up a driveway.

The Reason why I think it's the driveshaft coz when I went under the car I grabbed the driveshaft and it has slight play and a knock. Where as the drivers side doesn't.

So what's the deal? New drive shaft needed ? New bearings ?
Boh!

tried tightening the 32/36mm driveshaft nut ?
Checked the lower ball joint crown nut - that its tight ? (17mm headed)

check wheel bearings too, my civic did it and i to thought it was driveshaft and had them rebuilt and same thing again till i changed bearings.

Mine turned out to be play in the ball joint. Bearings should make noise when rolling, not just on driveways etc

my mate had the same problem it could be your springs on your coilovers they make a knocking noise when you turn.

try some coil wrap it prevents it from not making the noise

see if that helps
