hey guys,

Got a real nastey clunking noise comming from the front of my corsa b every time i put the car in full left/right hand lock. Has anyone experienced this b4 or know what it may be?

Just incase this is of any relevance, I've put a set of 17" Wolfrace Enigma alloys on running the original suspension.

Thanks peeps

This is funny, cos my Brand new Corsa made this sort of noise as soon as i got it (in march) When i crashed it and it was repaired (in June) its been fine since.

Yeh, i'd had it 3 months. I slid sideways into a kurb at about 60mhp. Both left wheel went underneath the car. But since it was repaired the clonk noise has gone

Yeh mine was costly too, but my Dad decided not to go through insurance and pay it off himself to save the hassle of having a bad insurance record.
