    Right let's get straight to the point, when i turn right and accelerate into the corner the whole drivers side front end makes a loud knocking/clunking noise for example "duh, duh, duh, duh, duh..", so.. today i decided to take off my wheel and to my i come across the whole driveshaft/wishbone/drop links/back of VTR Alloy covered in oil and grease, i need to find out what this is urgently as it drives me mad and obviously i am leaking oil somewhere grrrrgh pissed off because just as i am happy at the moment with how my car is coming along this happens.

    Kind Regards,

    Richard .

    Sounds like your cv boots gone pal, Will most probs need some new driveshafts if its been gone a while. If its only just gone might be able to put some more greese in thereand re seal it.

    Got my dad to have a look at it not long since and yep the drive shaft is fucked, going to have to order one and sort that you before the updated modifications start.
