+3 on rotors (+3 is a high score you know)

My mkI road car pulsates really bad, I keep meaning to fix it. It normally comes from tyres shops that use an overkill setting on the rattlegun warping the rotors by doing one side up really tight before moving to the next. They quite often strip studs and snap them with rattle guns normally because they have it set to "Kenworth Truck" rather than "small sports car"

Clunk could also be the pillow mounts on the suspension (on top of the sloppy sounding bushings), they just went on my racecar and on rough roads clunk their head off to the point of having to assure the officials the wheel won't fall off its just a pillow mount. They are the rubber packers on the top of the strut, you can normally see if they are bad by looking at the gap that's opened up causing them to clunk.
