I think thats what the banging is. There is only a gap of about 40mm between the exhaust and trailing arm. Is there anything I can put between them to silence the noise?

Just take the whole exhaust off, will stop the banging and will sound wicked.

If all else fails, go for sellotape.

Use Vectra exhaust clamps, they are a lot stronger and shorter.
