hi, help !!!!!!

after a accident with a kerb, around 30 mph, my car\'s bodywork was repaired at a local bodyshop.

unfortunatly, now there is a knocking noise - if i jack the car up and spin a front wheel, there is a loud cyclic clunk from the diff housing !!!!!

both wheels make the noise from the same place - is this normal for a clio - 1.2 t reg 60000 miles

Hi, if the box is the same as a megane, when you pull out the drive shaft from the box, there is a large circlip inside the box which breaks up, get a new one from Renault and stick it in.
good luck.
