Noticed last weekend a clunk from drivers side.

Dipped the clutch and it was still present.

Seems to be rotational related

Haven't had a chance to get under the car yet.

Drop links were replaced not that long ago when had new springs and shocks after drivers spring snapped.

Being mechanically retarded was wondering what and where to start.

May be worth just whipping the top engine mount out. The chassis where it bolts into may be cracked. Very common on these. How much engine movement do you have? Smile

Is it rotational as in it does it based on wheel speed?

yeah seems to be.. only seems noticable at slow speed.

dont think its engine mount as it was repetitive while the clutch was dipped so there's no drive from the engine.

would a fecked driveshaft cause that? whats the best way to check?

Yeah if it is genuinely a rotational thing then i'd have thought that would be more likely, or maybe bearings?

Is it mainly when driving straight?
