i had this prob ages ago eveybody kept on telling me it was the exhaust but it wasnt :lol: i dun everything in my power to stop the exhaust from moving and it wasnt the exhaust its a braket underneath the back axle matey mine was so recked after the bracket was battered i then bent it back and job sorted no more banging had same prob wen i lowered it nothing at all 2 years on ;) | |

Yeah i think its the zorst mate, the rubbers on yours looked a bit nackered yesterday. try getting some new ones from halfords. or get a the full system we was talking about :thumbs: good luck fella. | |

the exhaust will be hitting the axle, undo the clamp behind the back box and rotate it so the nuts point upwards, this creats more room, other way is to undo the clamp and twist the backbox slightly it lifts the bend that goes over the axle and helps it clear, i did this last night on my car, if ya choose smaller rubbers, get ones for a ford focus they are better, my cars lowered 60-70mm at the rear and mine dont hit no more:thumbs: | |

might be the backbox hitting the spring aswell | |

i got the same problem. its hitting off the axle. some people managed to stop it by getting stiffer rubbers to hold the exhaust higher, but i think im gonna have to get my exhaust heated and bent over the axle a wee bit more | |

when i got my car lowered whenever i went over the slighest of dips in the road i heard massive banging. this was m,y exhaust hitting my torsion bar, but corsas dont have torsion bars, but will be the exhaust hitting soemthing | |

When i go over bumps I can hear a loud clanging from under the back of the car, presumably its the exhaust??? |
