I have almost decided that my car's suspension clunks are drop link related, but since funds are short ATM, was wondering if anyone could help me with the diagnosis...

The clunks mainly happen when turning and when reversing. More so if the corners are very tight or fast.

The suspension has been lowered and raised again - insurance and road quality issues, but I am reasonably convinced that it is all fitted correctly now. Have read the instructions posted earlier...

Many thanks to anyone who can help.

Just found out that one of my rear drop links is knackered. I get a noise that sounds like a damper has gone when going over speed bumps.

You can move it around on the top bush when the car ISN'T jacked up, they are under tension when jacked up so you won't see it.
