Knocking noise, passenger side



  182
Came on all of sudden whilst out for a drive and got gradually worse.

Would I be right in thinking drive shaft? Symptoms are vibrating through the wheel and loud knocking noise, gets worse when not on the accelerator and not there at all when turning left.

How much am i looking at to buy the driveshaft? Easy to do? I know its more difficult on the n/s cos of the gear box but manageable?

Just spent a small fortune getting it through an M.O.T, pissed off isn't the word!

I did think gearbox mount at one point, but that wouldnt explain why it doesnt knock when turning left, would it?

I had a worn gearbox mount once and it would act the same, no knocking as turning left!

Guess it might be something to do with weight distribution as you're turning left, however, I could be wrong.
