If you then set the car on low, then normal, does it do it again?

Hi Xac, I have tried it a few times , starting from the low posistion. there is no noise . Incidently the clunk noise does"nt happen every start-up. generally when the car is cold . cheers Terry .

It wouldn't be related to this would it?
