hey guys well ive almost bought a vt series 2 SS from a dealer today, its done 73,000 ks and still has a year of holden certified warranty plus dealer warranty. anyway i havent bought it yet as waiting for finance approval. problem is its got a pretty bad clunking/shuddering under moderate-hard braking, and low speed cornering it has a similar noise but more metallic sounding. ive checked all the fluid levels, now the tyres are absolutely stuffed (im swapping em for my old mags tomorrow), could this be it? or is it a worse problem? it definitely sounds mechanical like gearbox or maybe diff/tailshaft, anyone know what this could be? a mate of mine said it sounds like the gearbox (auto) as there was a bit of a ticking sound getting out of his driveway. im getting it looked over by a mechanic tomorrow but im just after some ideas/advice on what it could be and how major it is? thanks in advance guys.
