Hey guys ive a 97 glanza had a knocking noise coming from front end not easy to say if it was at the wheels but took wheels off and checked if it was shafts but no play in them doen't sound like a cv its like a clunking when slow corners or taking off slowly at a junction, just found out i have an lsd but now maybe thinking the diff is shot, but can u adjust the slack on the lsd if so how? Or do i need to bite the bullet?
Cheers
Jay

possible engine mount, or creaking balljoint, check if there are any tears in the rubber boots, check the arm bushes and also anti-roll bar links aswell

Almost certainly the diff mate.

The clunk is normal and healthy if it is the diff, you can use friction modifier to eliminate it, but if you use too much apparently you can damage the gearbox synchro's...

I'd just live it with it personally :)
