HI
When I take a sharp left turn a bit faster than normally (+5mph) or when accelerating out of a roundabout(also left), I can hear this rattle-knocking noise coming from the rear right, behind driving seat. Sounds like a smurf quickly hitting the rear right side suspension a few times with a tiny hammer. Turning sharp to the right, driving fast straight or turning really slowly to the left is fine, no noise. I've done my research on the forum and on the net as well, most people suggest it most probably a worn bush.
I've seen a "how to check for worn bushes" video. There's the guy put a spanner between the axle(?) and the arm holding the bush. You could see the spanner moved quite easily, not much resistant. The rubber had gone completely. However on the Puma that arm holding the bush is between two metal parts, so there's no space to put the spanner, it wouldn't move unless that part rust out.
When I put pressure on the rear right side by hand, I don't hear anything. When I shake that side 6-8 times heavily, I can just hear a tiny sound, similar when mice talk in the cartoon.
I can hear that noise for months probably. I thought it was the loose heat protector, but fixing that didn't make the noise go. Few days ago the garage I like to go, swapped my tyres and they didn't say a thing.
So how can I check if the bushes are worn by eyes or with basic tools?
The landlord doesn't allow any DIY car fixing around the house, the gravel is too loose to lift the car with a jack as well.
Thanks.
