Noise sorted!
Hi, I want to share my success in stopping annoying clonking noise coming from rear suspension. My 940 has passed 2 mots with flying colours but with testers lost at finding source of clunky noise when driving. After several searches here I finally came across fix.
Jack up rear of car to access rear wheel arch. Remove hidden by mud rubber grommet and tighten loose suspension shock bolt. Sorted noise! Thanks guys! |

With that in mind, i'd suggest checking the other side and also where the dampers bolt into the lower arms too.
It could be a one-off, a previous owner was changing them, doing up the last bolt, got called to the phone or something and forgot he hadn't fully tightened it but it could also be that none are as tight as they should be! Torque wrench settings for checking ^^^^^
