Clonk clonk
I've noticed that I have a slight clonk noise which sounds to be n/s/r when pulling away.. Requires some gentle clutch and throttle work to avoid it.. Any obvious things to check? Can't see any loose suspension bolts or bushes... Uj's I think are ok.. It's a 2005 TD5, thanks...

Drive flange
Diff pinion flange
Rear axle ball joint
Wheel nuts
Drive flange bolts.

All worth checking

Drive flange sounds very likely as its that kind of clicky clonk... If that makes sense.

I see a lot advertised as upgrades from OE, any one have a recommendation of choice?

Thanks , Steve

I changed my rear prop uj's at the weekend to cure a clonk I was getting on pulling away and lifting on/off he accelerator. When I tried to move the prop by hand I couldn't get any movement at all, it wasn't until I lay down beside the defender while the GF reversed/drove forward up and down the drive could I hear the prop moving.

Once I had stripped the rear prop off it was very obvious that was the problem and I am glad I did before the prop fell apart!
