had a clunking from the front end of my preface vec for a while, its an auto box. when i pull away it clunks, then if i stop and go in forward or reverse, it clunks, sometimes a double clunk. ive tried full lock and reversing, no noise or grinding. sounds like someone banging the floor under my feet with a rubber hammer. drivers side inner cv boot was changed just before i got it, looks fine, as do the other boots, but googling it really sounds like a cv joint. checked drop links, look good, the other bushes look ok too, inc engine mounts, tried lubing them, no difference. its worse if its cold. i have also noticed its got a bit of a wobble now with the front wheels, this wasnt there a month ago, feels like tracking or wheel balance but havent hit anything so should be ok. its a 2.2dti sri auto on an 04 plate. is it a lot to change the cv joints, also checked the front springs, all ok, and top mounts seem good, turned wheel jacked up, no swaying about.
