Default Clonking when reversing

Another thread much like paulbakerstis' thread.

My MY99 turbo is making a clonk clonk clonk noise when reverse turning. Only does it if i've had a bit of a drive, say 15mins. Its coming from around the passenger front (i think) and sounds like it's causing the wheel to drag a little.

I've noticed that over the last few months i've developed a bit of wheel wobble when braking and i've been told that my discs are a bit warped, i've just not done anything about it as its never really bothered me. Now it seems to have got a little worse.

If my brakes were quite warped and probably more prominant when hot as the metal expands, is it possible that my brake pads are digging into the grooves of the discs and causing said clonky noises?

Or is my gearbox/diff/something expensive on its way out?
