Civicnige Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 There's a slight knocking sound when I go over small bumps in the road, my dads 1.4 civic hatch makes the exact same sounds going I've small bumps, but both of us can't work out what it is as the bushings are fine and can't seem to locate the cause. My dads civic made the knocking sound when it was before and after it was lowered and it hasn't got any worse now it's back to standard. Anyone have any ideas what it could be?

Roylewaa Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 When my 1.4 did that it was the track rod ends, or tie rod ends whatever you want to call themJack it up and see if they're is any movement in them:)Hope this helpsFailing that it would be the upper balljoint possibly as mine has a slight knock on one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marko Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 I'd also have a look at you drop links aswell and tbh fr the price of 2 track rods and 2 droplinks (£40ish for all 4) I would change them both and see if it persists then have a look at your top mounts and springs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
