Clunk when letting off the gaspedal
 

Whenever I let my foot off the gas pedal , i can hear a clunk coming from the drivers side, at low speeds

Anyone that has had the same problem?

As already said, check the lower wishbone rear bush.


It's also worth checking the lower engine mount/tie because that's positioned more to the O/S too.

I have noticed that it also happens when I put the gear in reverse

A common fault , and the answer is indeed likely to be one of the two above suggestions :}

Try levering the front or back of the tyre with a long bar. The movement on the rear bush will be clearly seen as forward and backward movement of the wheel in relation to the wheel arch.;) My experiences HERE!

I had the exact same problem on my car it turned out to be the lower engine mount worth investigating as it's a common failure

First and easiest to check is the relative aft movement of the O/S/F wheel indicating the lower rear suspension mounting rubber has had it - get an assistant to put into 1st gear, apply front brakes and gently try to drive (rock) the car - you'll see the a lot of free movement at the arm end in the rubber mounting. If that looks OK then it's almost certain the lower rear engine mount rubber that's gone.

If you are going to get an assistant to do the above, also pop the bonnet & have a look how far the engine is moving.....you'll soon see if the lower mount has gone by the excessive movement!
