Ok...last night driving home i could hear funny noises coming from my left wheels front and rear...almost like something was hitting something???..i looked but couldnt see anything obvious...its not loud.....but it does seem to be coming from that area...i wasnt sure at first if it was inside the cab.....When i get back this aft im going to jack the car up to see if i can see anything..Now i know i have a loose door card which i cant seem to put back on(no i never took it off)...but the noise isnt from that.Any ideas????

 

Thanks peeps.xx

If it is a regular tick-tick sound from the wheels it could be something stuck in the tyres, anything from a nail to a small stone between the treads. I would check all your tyres thoroughly.

 

If you describe the sound in more detail, you may get a more accurate diagnosis.

I found the source of the noise..i looked in the dark last night..looked again this morning before i left..found that my tyres are covered in squashed marshmallow would you believe (well thats what it looked like) and stuck to that was all sorts of crap!!that was the clunking sound!!!!..When i got back this aft I cleaned off the tyres as i didnt think it would be good to leave the sticky stuff on. :lol:

Were they liquorice allsorts? They could have been doing it, why blame the marshmallows?
