Hello
I have just had the clutch replaced on my '00 VTR. Since having this done it's developed a loud knocking (sounds in time with the wheels turning) under acceleration and more so when turning (especially left).
It is also leaking quite a lot of gearbox oil which I've been told is most likely a driveshaft seal, however I was told after having the clutch fitted that both driveshafts look fairly new and in good condition. I've only owned this car since May.
The wishbone and lower suspension set up all looks pretty new and fresh, all seals/boots and joints look good and feel tight and sturdy with no excess play and there were no unusual knocks or any noises I would maybe expect of a 17 year old car prior to the clutch being done.
I am reluctant to put money into replacing the lower arms. droplinks balljoints etc. After reading a few older threads on this site trying to gather info as it seems like it may be something completely different.
Any help would be massively appreciated - I am supposed to be driving to the Nurburgring in 9 days and this is throwing quite a spanner in the works!!
