Well I,ve got a friend and there's a loud knocking noise from the front when braking. There seems to be alot of movement in the rear lower arm bushes. Anybody come across this scratch

Ibiza's like Polo's are prone to needing new rear wishbone bushes, if there's alot of movement in them then i'd say thats ur first port of call. And if its not the wishbone bushes (which i'd be surprised if it wasnt) then replacing the bushes will help to find the real cause of the probem easier.

Hope this helps Smile

As said above it could be the front bushes, ive just had mine replaced, they werent knocking but they were starting to crack. Luckily the dealership did them under warranty, mine is a 56/2006 reg.
