It sounds like it's some sort of mount because it's not when you select gear it's when you take power the sound is as if something is loose or not screwed down, so I'm thinking of some sort of mount

Hi all I get a clunk/knocking noise from under car mainly when going from drive to reverse(not gearbox as it will clunk when the car moves, same when going from reverse to drive) it is only 1 clunk when the car moves back or forward, and it may do it every now and then when stopping sharply then pulling away, Any advise pls Regards dave

I'll leave spoiler I think, I just want to be suttle and make it mine, I don't want it to end up like a Honda, Also last owner did all calipars red and I'll be doing them gloss black with decals, how easy will it be to paint over the red as in the past I've only painted calipars from scratch, a few coats I guess.

With a steady hand and a sharp knife, heat with hair dryer and should stick to most things, heating it up makes it flexible.

Heated Seats Issue - Is200 - 2003
gibbsy1 replied to sanslexus's topic in Lexus IS200 / Lexus IS300 Club
intrested to find out as mine are the same, I will keep an eye on this thread. -
my first is200 was on an x plate bought in 2006 and I was with her for 4 and a half years and that was an awesome car with no problems, since then ive had an r32 mk4 which I had for 3 years but got ritten off, then a 330msport and an audi a4 1.8t, but the lexus was the most reliable, now ive gone back to lexus with the is300 because of the power 82k on the clock and I hope this is has reliable as the is200, I don't think we need to wish you luck because these cars are great, but good luck anyway and happy motoring, regards dave
