Help with knocking from rear of quattro A4

Post by chrisd31 » Sun Feb 27, 2011 2:55 pm

Hi just looking for some help and advice please, my friend has a B7 A4 2.0 turbo quattro and there is a knocking / thudding sound coming from the rear of the car under load going uphill mostly and sometimes on the flat, seems to do it more after the car has been warmed up a bit and when been turning on full lock etc, any ideas what the banging could be??

Regards
Chris

Rear diff mount
Exhaust
ARB end links
ARB bushes

Best getting it up in a ramp and having a poke around
