Knocking sound from the rear - particularly when engaging reverse

That's brilliant, being a 1 owner car is something special but with that mileage as well. I've done 50,000 in mine in the 6 years I've owned it and still enjoy every miles so doing 385K is a bit special. Mark, this is a thread resurrection from last year 😄 To update, as of March 24, the car is 21 y...

A known pita job but anyone done it themselves or had it done to their coupe or touring?

What were the symptoms for your Head gasket Simon?
