Hi guys,

The ol Brm is a but noisey at the back when going over severe bumps or going over speed bumps, is it common to the breed as its stiffer suspension or certain bushes have given up?

Exhaust ok and not hitting anything.....

sounds like bushes but how can you tell it's not the exhaust?

mine doesn't when I fiddle with it (ooh err missus), but certainly vibrates at times against the rear suspension beam when the engine is running...

It seems to be a bit nosier than that as its fine out on the open road it just seems to be the road to my work!

are there any bushes on the back that are prone to wearing?

Best to keep an eye on the rear suspension arm bushes as they can often go.
