Hi Guys, Im new to this forum so be gentle.
i have a corsa 2001 1.2 sxi. when i reverse, normally first thing in morning there is a knocking from the rear right wheel (or atleast it sounds like its form there) it soon goes and wont happen again for a day or two. any ideas what this could be.
also the steering is heavier to the right, when im stationary and whilst moving, it sometime locks a little at very slow speed (like in car park)
thanks for your help guys

sounds like the shoe in the rear drum binding causing the knock, nothing to worry about as its a common thing to happen. try parking so you dont need to reverse, see if it still does it forwards

nah, if it is the shoes binding ts a naturl occurance. even brand new cars do it. does it more during cold and wet weathe or sometimes after the car has been washed.
