   Hey guys,
   
   I've got a really weird knocking noise when i turn left and accelerate. It was happening on the front but i got that sorted but now it sounds like its coming from the back drivers side.
   
   Also when i set off from standing there is a creaking noise.
   
   And when my cars idle sometimes it revs normal but sometimes it revs upto 2000.
   
   Any ideas anyone?
   
   It sounds expensive to me.

   The revving will be your ICV, clean it with carb cleaner
   
   The knocking sounds like a drive shaft, I would say it sounds like it's coming from the back but actually from the front

   Yeah Defo sounds like the driveshaft and idle control valve, you can clean the ICV but will have to replace the fuked driveshaft.
