Q1. Is the noise mainly occurring when going over bumps and speed humps?

A1. Get a 'free' check with Pedders or Jax (- maybe $25) and they'll give you a list. The urgent one is probably the problem one. Some of them, might not be urgent at all and they want to make $$ out of you. Pick their brains. Could be bushes/ball joint etc.

Q2. Is the noise more pronounced if you're going through a corner and applying mild acceleration? Or doing tight circles left and right?

A2. Tell your mechanic to check it over. Perhaps the previous owner used the sticky tape over the drive shaft boot?

Your question is a bit too indistinct - lacking detail. But it's hard to describe a noise I know.

Do you have coilovers? They can be notorious for being noisy sometimes.

Hahah sory mate,

Um the noise definatly seems to be there mainly when im gong over bumps, but sayi g that its akson there whilst normal drivng is in action, so yea, also i might point out that when i push up and down, and side to side on the rear of the car the noise is akso occouring?

What do you reckon mate?

And i do have coilovers but there brand new and i mean 1000k, if that.

Thanks for your help guys appreciate it

Sounds like a bush.

Just take what Pedders say with a grain of salt. Well known to tell people "every bush needs to be replaced, front to back", so don't be a sucker.
