B3 Slight Knock....

[NamtekcoR84]

Hey everyone I have a 93 Passat Lowered 2" in the front and 2 1/2" in the back, there is a slight knock when acclerating (one time) and when braking also (one time) It is driving me InSaNe!!!!! Ive replaced the front engine mount and looked at the rear trans+engine mount is fine, Ive also looked at the front end a bit but found nothing..... Also the problem started to happen after smashing the oil pan and oil pump on a crappy road in the industrail area. Any help would be greatly appreciated
Thanks JdT VduDs FoR LiFe

Hey nice b3!

No idea whats wrong... how about... engine mounts... could be engine movement and hitting something... or suspension is loose somehow... bushings or maybe the struts are moving...

Re: B3 Slight Knock....

had a simular problem with my s2k when i lowered it.. id check to make sure that your sway bar is tight and also visually inspect all the ball joints and bushings... if its a loud knock a couple swings with the butt end of a hammer in different spots should help you find out where that problem is.. good luck!

Re: B3 Slight Knock....

it could be front wheel bearings shifting in the housing.
more info required.
