Default Clunking question please help

When my car is just moving very very slowly you get a sort of rotational clunk clunk noise in reverse or forward I have been told it will be the rear suspension, does anyone know if you get these symptoms when your suspension goes bad ?

Common fault if its the rear shocks, feels like your wheels are like a 50 pence piece. Scooby clinic do a fix I think or there are threads on here about greasing nipples ( or was that the adult section ). Andy

Yes it feels exactly like the wheels are a 50 pence piece that's why I couldn't believe it was the shocks but maybe it is then ?

If you are going to mod and change the suspension anyway that'll solve the problem - get your wallet out
