check the u-bolts and shackles are done up tight, also check the wheel bearings.

does it happen on acceleration?

i have just replaced all the bushes and suspension.everything is as tight as reccomended.happend before i did suspension.

no noise on acceleration but only does it on certain bumps and when turning around corners.if i corner slowly there is no noise.

The wifes GV3 has a weird noise comming from the rear end. It drives her crazy and its not the kids. Its a completely random clunk.....

OK so spent the day looking at every nut and bolt under the car.turned out the klunking was the rear exhaust bracket was bent and whenever it moved up and down it hit the mounting bracket.believe me i had done the SHAKE LIKE MAD THE EXHAUST but it had to move directly up and down .it also cured the turning at higher speed klunk.

appreciate the input guys
