Is a wishbone

Featured Replies

Hi guys.

I got little problem with my octy. On roundabout or in country side roads. When I turn to the right it feels like left hand side wheel is wobbly and noise and clunging sound.

I'm thinking its a wishbone. Or can be something else?

Thanks

Could be a cv joint . If you put it on a full lock and drive u should here the clunk .

Cheers Whoosh

I don't think is CV joint, as noise is different. When I'm driving around roundabout slowly there are no noise or feeling of lose wheel. It's only when I'm in hurry :).

I will probably need to wait for weekend and lift my car.

I would be checking wheel bolts first, then jack the car up and try to wobble the wheel to see if its the bearing. If not, then suspension/bushes.

ok change to winter tyres and checked all bushes but i cant see anything worn out. wheel is not moving at all.

done MOT yesterday with no problem at all. i asked guy if he can see something wrong with suspension, but he said everything is fine. 

but wheel is still feel lose on turns. 

probably need to take car to skoda specialist and see if they can find anything wrong.

or change wishbone and then see if problem gone or not.

any advise welcome.
