[QUOTE="moots, post: 553809, member: 219"] howdy nick, my suggestion is to get a new mechanic.in no way is your LH subframe bushing ok!there shud not be any gap there.the bushing shud fit snugly in the subframe and the whole subframe fitted straight to the car. the half shaft,by design,must have some axial play to take up the horizontal movement of the suspension.i doubt that's the cause of the knock. have your subframe bush looked at asap as this cud be dangerous as more than 70% of the rear suspension components are conected to the rear subframe.
