Low Speed Knocking
Hi
I have a MY03 UK Sti.
When I slow to a stop there seems to be an audible and often a feelable(is that a word?) knock just before the car actually stops.
Also in traffic jam today when moving along slowly I could hear and feels a knocking which I assume is coming from the diffs.
I can't hear the noises at speed, but could be due to the noise of the exhaust!
Should I be worried?
Thanks
Steve

Open the rear door stand on the sill and jump up and down whilst holding on to the roof....
This is NOT a strange Scoobynet indoctrination ceremony HONEST !
If your rear struts are wearing they should "knock", a well know fault/design weakness on these cars... just buy some more or put up with it... like I do !
