14th August 2008, 01:27

A few noises are starting to bug me now...

Sometimes when i pull away i get a 'ping' metally noise coming from pasnger front side...??

I get small knocks over bumps etc (not all the time)

and then, when im driving and take foot off eccelerator then put for back down, a large bang / knock comes from passenger side...

Parts replaced:
Whole wishbone including ball joint
Drop link
Uprated springs and shocks (professionally fitted)

Was thinking it was engine mount etc...

Just had full MOT and was no advisories about driveshaft etc (advisory on bearing)

Thanks

I had a twang when I pulling away sometimes. Last w/e I was driving along normally & there was a twang then alot of vibration. It was my top drivers side engine mount. The bolt had snapped/sheered off. Dad's now fixed it & no more twangs!!

Hope this helps?
