Hi,  This is my first post on the forum,  and I am relatively new to TR’s having bought my 3a last summer.  
I have a problem with the handling,  the back end wheel skips out on hard cornering on one side and not the other.  Also in general the back end knocks a bit and generally doesn’t feel tight (is this the car or an issue?).  Would appreciate some insight 

 

thanks

Possibly a loose shock absorber on one side Chris - a fairly common source of rear-end knocks. They need to be really tight.

Thanks Roger.  So I have found all issues now I think.  Both shock absorbers were loose and one rear tyre had lost about 15 psi over the winter.  When I bounce the car now the knocking has gone, so just waiting for the next time I can go to Sainsbury’s for the shopping to test it out.  Thanks for the help
