    Knocking Sound

    Hi All, i was wondering if you could shed any light on this. When driving normally i get no noise at all. But if I hit a bump i get a knocking sound on the passanger side (I cant work out if it's front or back) It's not a squeek like when my bushes went and it doesn't knock straight away...

    Odd running....help!

    I have had the coil packs replaced and the car runs well, with no burning smell. I have noticed 3 drops of oil on the garage floor this morning. So i guess thats why my oil level has been going down. So is it a case of look under and find where the oil is coming from? Or are their 'normal'...

    Odd feeling on lift off

If i am at full throttle in second gear and lift off around 4.5-5K rpm, the revs either stay there for a short while then drop, or the shoot up a little then drop giving a strange feeling in the car (feels like you have just...
