Evening all
I have a huge thud from the back of the car when I hit a big bump and I have checked all suspension components and found nothing (pretty much all of it is new within 2000miles).
I am now thinking it is coming from the rear hatch area. I read some hints about sticking fuel and water hose in a few areas around the hatch on am old rennlist post but can't for the life of me find it again as I discussed it last week when I couldn't tie up the descriptions without photos to my cars physical presence. I have attached a photo of the rear apart - any advice on where I can add support to the rear hatch assembly to resolve a big 'thud'.
Also, whilst here, rear near side drain has come off (explains the condensation on the rear hatch every time I wash the car. Any hints on how to make sure this stays put? I was thinking to put the end in boiling water to soften the hose and hopefully let it slide on further - the hose doesn't feel particularly soft anymore!
Any help appreciated!
