Loud clunk from under the car when going into reverse
So I have been noticing an issue that seems to get worse over the past month.
I drive the car and come to a stop, i put it into reverse and turn the wheel to back into a parking spot and as i begin to move in reverse, I hear a loud clunk from under the car. It happens every time. The sounds feels like it comes from under the front of the car, maybe associated with the steering. Not sure. What is causing this? * edit * I am taking it to the dealer within the next day to have them look at this issue. Was interested with any potential supplemental data I could provide them to better focus the root cause. Last edited by mdriver2; 07-19-2016 at 01:40 PM.. |

is your car lowered? maybe suspension related. i know my alignment guy told me to keep an eye on my tie rod as it had a slight play in it

The dealer has the car. I was able to replicate the noise with a tech in the car and he confirmed he heard something, so we'll see. In the meantime i have a i3 loaner that is pretty interesting to drive.

The dealer called and said there actually was a service advisory for the front wheel clunking issue. They took apart both front wheels and repacked/repaired the bearing and hub area. After the repair, they indicate that the clunk sound went away.
I was not there to see first hand because my wife went to pick up the car not me. |
