Adzr6 New Member 4 Member For: 10y 13d Gender: Male Posted 29/11/14 03:01 AM Share Posted 29/11/14 03:01 AM Hey guysJust noticed going through Maccas drive through slowly that I get a continuous clunking sound as the car movesslowly when the steering wheel is not straight as well as a rhythmic ticking sound once the car has been driven that eventually comes to a stop once the car has been stationary for long enough. The car is a 2011 Fg Ute Xr6turbo with around 68,000 kms on the clock so its still a baby and it is still under warranty. WIll be bringing it in this week to the shop to get checked out butwant to know if anyone has had any similar problems with theirs and point me in the right direction. Cheers guys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
