CV joints would be my best guess... and it's only a guess...


I'm assuming that this happens when you're traveling at high speed son the
highway or when traveling up hill.


I had the same thing happen to me on a long road trip through two mountains
passes between Seattle, WA and Sebastopol, CA.


You might want to look there...

My 1983.5 water cooled 1.9L Camper developed a regular progressively louder
knocking and vibration emanating from the vicinity of the left rear wheel.
Which disappeared when depressing the clutch pedal and was not a permanent
ailment.  A close look at that wheel assembly and down through the engine
access area revealed no obvious complaint.  Any suggestions as to where I
might look to find the source of this issue?
