Hi Chaps,
I have had a search around and found possible matches for my problem, but I am hoping for some further advice.
I have developed a squeak or creak from (it appears) the front offside. At first I thought it was engine mount, then I thought it was suspension or shocks. I checked the suspension, visually fine, I checked the shocks visually fine but also rocking the car doesn't recreate the noise (though doing this isn't conclusive).
When I got into work this morning, I had a look inside the engine bay. The main engine mount appears fine, but I can see on the drivers side under the coolant bottle something else with a wotsit that clearly slides in and out....
what is it?? It looks like an engine mount of some sort with a kind of dampening rod like a shock absorber....can anyone clarify as this may be my issue! thank you in advance!
