Engel 60Lt Combo big clunk noise

Mines fine in a 78 series. No clunk.
Whats the cause ?

What sort of cars are your mates using.

It has been suggested in changing brands of cars, haha. not funny.
Im thinking of changing to waeco cf80 seems to look ok.

I have a 40l engel that has a clunk in the motor, but only when it is not running, may be the piston or something. It has done it since I got it second hand.

The fridge is also about 25 years old and still works so I have learnt to live with it.

Have had the recall on the spare wheel carrier. Cable no good changed to chain, mabe this could be the noise

A couple of questions?

Is it an intermittent clunck? That is not continuous?

Are you running a spring base kit with the engel? If yes try with-out over the same strech of road.....If not try with one
Does it only happen with the engel inside over the same strech of road? Ie is it a rough section of road or good sealed bitumen?

I assume the engel is fastened/bolted down to the back? and is not bouncing around.

Its most likey to be the comressor moving when it either starts or stops. To determine: Get some one to sit in back and hold fridge so that they can feel any vibration when it starts and stops while listening for audible clunk.

Let me know how you go.

Early engels used to rattle like hell,sounded like empty bottles clanging together.
This was from the compressor and did not affect operation at all,just annoying.
The later and current models have a nylon washher fitted inside the compressor,soley to stop this noise.
No current model or even 5 yrs old should have this rattle-take it back under warranty.
Regards

My 60 litre doesn't clunk, but as it's in the back of my Defender maybe I just can't hear it above the rest of the noise!
Definitely sounds like an on/off noise which one of the fridges at home makes .....especially when there's not enough beer in it.

Do you have the fridge/freezer or the fridge version only. Apparently it is only happerning in the f/f version

GO the 80lt Waeco ,way to go.
