WorldClassAccident is on a distinguished road
Default Today I will play "Hunt the Clunk"

Occasionally and intermittently* I get a clunk when I brake hard and then accelerate. This mostly happens when Approaching and then exiting a corner but that is because that it when I brake and then accelerate. It does sometime happen when I brake and then accelerate in a straight line though.

Hard to work out where the clunk comes from but I think it is the back of the car. Unfortunately I have been unable to work out how to replicate the clunk in a test environment so cannot be sure. It just happens sometimes and never gives any warning so I am not really listening for it to determine exactly where it come from.

I am starting by jacking the back of the car up and seeing if anything seems loose or clunky, especially around the brakes. I will then do the same up the front.

Any other suggestions welcome.

*Never words that make finding a fault easy.
