Hi all, My mx5 has started making an awful racket during daily driving Obviously having a locked diff it was always gna be shit to live with but now almost everytime i turn a corner at fairly slow speed there is a big clunk from the rear end, I have checked all the bushes and they all seem fine so I took it to a garage and they didn't find anything wrong. Has anybody else had this issue and how can I sort it out?
have you checked the oil in the diff as a geuss ? i dont know much but i think i remember reading it somewhere about the oil
That's a fair point I haven't checked it since the diff was welded. Il get on that tomorow. Thanks mate
Mine does something similar but not too worried. Checked the top mounts are tight and that the driveshafts aren't snagging the springs? Checked on mine as well as for movement in ppf bits. My diff weeps a bit of oil but not enough to actually drip on the ground so I tend to top it up when I remember. Didn't sort the clunking though!
yeah im not massively worried about it tbh but it does annoy me a little bit lol Thanks for your input though buddy.
i had a similar noise when i swapped over to a welded diff... the extra forces involved could have weakened the bolts or loosened the nuts. hope its an easy fix.
i want to go again... was such a brilliant day out. il be booking a load up again for next year. Check out Blacket Photography for some wicked pics over the day. you wont regret it
IV only been to watch so far so looking forward to trying to slide for the first time. IV seen his pics from previous days and tbf they are awsome.
