Clunking noise :(

Post by pwheels »

My polo 9n 1.9 tdi has just started making a clunking noise mostly when I change down gears between 3rd & 2nd gear, but doesn't do it when changing up. The noise can be mostly heard if I'm in 2nd or 3rd gear & dabbing the accelerator. From inside the car, the noise sounds like it's coming from near the the passenger foot well.
Any ideas as to what this could be?

Yeah found a couple of posts with similar issues & it sounds about right. Where's the best place to get one? I've only seen upgraded one's which are. About £100!
