Theres a annoying knocking noise from the rear when i go over bumps, even the smallest of bumps. the cars down about 85mm with un-cut springs and new Jamex shortened shocks.

ave ensured the shocks are in tite, ave checked bushins, exhaust etc, all to no avail. someone told me it may be the bumpstops. has anyone ever had this problem before.

It could be bump stops, or might be that the springs are rattling when the car raises after a bump

exhaust on the spare wheel well/ rear axle? my corsa hits both of these and its only lowered 45mm!

or maybe its the fact that corsas are not meant to be lowered 85mm

lol

it aint the exhaust hittin the axle neway cos it used to do that then i fixed it. dont think its the springs cos they have only about 4 or 5 coils and they dont overlap each other. checked the bushins and they're fine. and it aint the spare wheel well cos it seems to come from both sides and doesn't have a tinny rattle off it
