Need some advice please, im getting a "Clonking" noise coming when im driving these days, just on normal roads nothing to extreme been looking on the site and can see people talking about bushes being changed, but for start i dont even know what bush has gone or where i could go to get it changed. The clonking sounds i think is coming from the rear but it sounds like its all over, any ideas which bush has gone? its a 2004 Fabia Vrs

Also i live in Swansea south Wales anyone recommend a garage that i could take my vRs to so i could get the bushes changed.

Without hearing it it's impossible, you need to get it looked at.

Could be console bushes, could be many things.

Good chance it's one or both drop links

What are console buses? is there any way of checking?

Would i be able to see if they had gone?

Flat road i hear nothing, but the odd bump and it appears, how can i ask the garage to check what should they look for?

Try the search function, search for console bushes and sit down with a cup of tea, you will have several hours amusment.

Complicated stuff, how much you looking at to get them changed?

Depends, normally about £150

For info on bushes and performance upgrades see my post....linky....
