Weird knocking sound
Hi all.

I was wondering if anyone has had a weird noise in the rear right. It sounds like a hollow knock. It is kind of feint, but it becomes more frequent the faster I go. I think it is something near the rear right wheel well.

Any ideas anyone?

TIA.

I have my mechanic take a look at it, when I get around to bringing the car to him.

Maybe. I think I'll make an appointment for my mechanic to check it out. I hope it is only the loose lugnut.
