Hi there all,
i'm in OZ and own a relatively new EVO 8 with 5000kms on the clock. Now when I purchased the car, it for some reason wasn't making a kind of knocking sound from the front of the car. Now it is making a knocking sound when I move, slow down suddenly. I won't make the noise if taking off slow or braking very gently. I seem to think something needs tightening but unsure until I take it to the dealer.
Almost feels like suspension is knocking or a part of the exchaust is knocking against the chassis etc. I'm a little worried and i'm sure it will/should be repaired under warranty. I was just curious as to whether anyone else out there has ever experienced a similar issue etc, and whether it is something that is loose that I can tighten myself??
Apologies for the long post, but i'm a concerned evo 8 owner :p
Cheers for reading,
Chris
