OK people, quick bit of online diagnostics required...
1985 4 GTL.
If I'm alone in the car then no problem, but if I have a passenger or any weight then when I go around right corners (so the car leans to the left) I have a banging / scraping / rubbing noise from the n/s/r corner. Tyre doesn't appear to be rubbing on anything as there are no marks on it or anything else. No problem if I go round left hand corners though.
Also, if I jack the entire rear of the car up so both rear wheels are off the ground, the n/s/r wheel sits about 4/5 cm closer to the ground (lower down) than the o/s/r.
Otherwise car drives pretty much ok.
I'm wondering about a duff n/s/r shock absorber? If so, I think I have a pair somewhere which might just get thrown on before I set off for Thenay :eek:
Your advice would be appreciated.
