Car problem after someone hitting me

AdrianC

It's entirely possible the wheel and tyre got scraped, but I can't see anything on the rim or the sidewall in that pic. It certainly doesn't appear to be severe enough to even cause any alignment issues - I'd assume that's all been checked.

I'd say the chances of gearbox damage from that were minimal.

when im driving over speed bumps there's a noise coming from this side that definitely wasn't there before ive asked garage to look to see whats causing this when they take it back in.

My bet would be that it's just the plastic arch liner not quite secured properly.
