As i mentioned in my previous post my CV Gaitor had split. Went to a Dub meet this afternoon and on the way there,there was a knocking noise from that side/wheel. First of all my Exhaust fell off on the way to the meet,so had to turn round and go pick it up.
On the way back we got about 1/2 mile from home and turned right at a set of lights and there was a vicisious vibration coming from the passenger side front wheel. Got round the corner and the next thing we know the nose dips down. I turn to my left and i see my ALLOY WHEEL bouncing next to me as high as the car! The car grinded on the brake disc along the road and up the kerb/path and came to a hault. The alloy wheel bounced and rolled into a near by garden.
I jumped out,ran and collected the wheel. Luckily the garden the wheel ended up in was the neighbour of a friend. So i knocked on his door and explained the situation. He came out with a wheel brace and 2 trolley jacks. Jacked the car up and put the wheel back on (luckily we found the wheel bolts!) and left the car in his drive way. Funnily enough his dad is the one whos changing my CV Gaitor tomorrow!
Thankfully,me and my mate are both ok!
