Reverse clunk

[markeyszoo]

Was reversing out of a parking spot last night on full left lock  when I heard a loud clunk.
It sounded like I had hit something. Got out nothing there?

Today reversing again on right lock it did it again. Pulled forward and repeated with no noise. Did that twice without any noise.

Reversing straight it does not do it.

Bad timing Xmas and all.

Could be brake caliper?

Doing what do you think?

Moving out of place. Happened to me. Every time I reversed it was clunking. Because it was loose, moving around. So I replaced them.

Also could be sticking callipers (pins need greasing) ... the force of moving releasing the pads from the discs and when you have re-applied the brakes they stick on again. Might be an indication to get them cleaned and re-greased.

So finally got her in today and the mechanics could not fault anything. Checked callipers, steering rack, wishbones, everything. Only suggestion was hitting end stops so all greased up and time will tell?

Good news no costs involved.

What is hitting end stops?

As it only does it on full lock, could it be the front tyres skipping (aka crabbing) due to the cold weather?

A number of threads recently regarding this ...
