hello there alfa addicts. slight knocking sensation when coming off the power or when cruising at 35/40mph in my 99' gtv. the noise seems to be coming from near the drivers side of the front end. anybody got any clues as to what this could be?? cheers....

could be a cv joint, does it happen on corners?

drive shaft could be lose at the gear box end of the shaft.

 

[itacarboy]

Engine mount possibly?

 

[geza]

no, doesnt happen when cornering.

[Durty dog]

[geza]

cheers. it'll be gettin fixed no matter what the cost anyway!!!!!

 

[msgtv]

Wont be too much, obv using a specialist not a main dealer.

 

[jakemate]

could be the centre driveshaft bearing if its the drivers side
