Also the fan on my heater suddenly started making a horrible 'flapping' noise. Any ideas?

The underside of my beloved F suffered a nasty bruising today as i mounted a kerb to let an ambulance past, and hasn't been the same since. I'm sure something has come loose underneath the car as there is knocking/ grinding but i have no idea what it could be. Is there anything in the middle of the underside that could come loose? I'm a little worried

Re: Belly bash
Check your spare wheel, you may have hit the underside of the spare wheel carrier, damaged it and moved your spare (maybe broken the securing bolt).
Having a look underneath should give you a rough idea as damage should be visible.
