Don't know how we never noticed tbh. And I'm not bud, I'm from Kent!

No one has it untill Monday :( waiting for someone to ring me back for tomorrow. Anyway, I think you might of been on the money a few posts back. Jacked up drivers side, and the CV/drive shaft looks like:

Clicking seems to be coming from this, it looks pretty knackered?

I'll put it in both threads, incase you don't see the other one. http://www.eurocarparts.com/ecp/c/Renault_Clio_2.0_2001/p/car-parts/suspension-and-steering/suspension/engine-mount/?338745140&1&ea3fc3be9b3e05d465e68a59613173cdfd2c88a7&000461 Is that the upper gearbox mate?

Useful as ever boys, thanks. The only one ECP shows up as having is this one: http://www.eurocarparts.com/ecp/c/Renault_Clio_2.0_2001/p/car-parts/suspension-and-steering/suspension/engine-mount/?338745140&1&ea3fc3be9b3e05d465e68a59613173cdfd2c88a7&000461 Would that be the upper gearbox one...

Sorry to be completely thick Dan, but what one is upper engine? One on the left as you look at it?

Hi guys Basically, I need to change some of my engine mounts today. Where is the best place to buy them so I can have them today? I have a feeling most auto factors won't have them on the shelf? Eurocrapparts only shows having the "left" mount, would that be gearbox one? (one under the...

I'm gonna crack on with changing engine mounts today, but really not sure which ones to change. I can rock the engine backwards and forwards with ease, the drivers side mount is the one that moves. While I do that, there is a "click" coming from towards the passenger front wheel, possibly...

KDS is a stone throw from my house, saw that enzo in the flesh, they do have some serious metal down there!

Unfortunately rain stopped most progress, so didn't even look at the car. I'm hoping the drivers shaft is the root to all these problems though. I take it the wheel bearing couldn't cause the clicking/knocking? Bearing in mind the clicking has been there since I got the car, the bearing noise...

It's on a slope going upwards, left to right is even though

f**king pictures don't work.. I attached them, hope it works!

Yeah I will, I was just seeing if CV was knackered on the other side, as that did look realy great, and as if it had a new boot. Anyway, wheels on lock to the left, passenger turret looks like this: The turret top looks bent in places. Pass is fine, looks like this Could that have...

Cheers Rob. I'll get the drivers side off, and fingers crossed its had it.

Sorry, it didn't have a "new" cv on it, it was just a different one to what was fitted to my car originally (I.e I Couldn't be bothered swapping CV's so replaced a shaft with a CV on it) I'm sort of hoping the new shaft has had it too, would stop a lot of headache. I plan to mate yeah, if I can...

Well the engine rocks backwards and forwards with ease (haven't tried side to side), what would be the best method of attack? And just to make sure, the mount couldn't be causing the cv to knock/rub, could it?

Ohhhhh got you. So that wouldn't be causing the knocking on the left handers? Where is the other mount, sorry I'm a noob. Only because a mechanic mentioned one of them has been powerflexed, looking under the car it's in the middle, towards the back of the bay, right at the bottom. Thanks a lot...

Could make a lot of sense. I take it being able to rock the engine by leaning on it (I.e not a lot of effort involved) then thats probably a shot mount? Where abouts do they bottom out on mate? And another, unrelated question. How can I tell which mount is knackered? Drivers side upper one...

I'll check top mount today then, thanks boys. Sorry Dan did you mean top mount or engine? Chip- Car is completely standard mate

Lads Iv just had a though. One of my engine mounts has had it, and i get a clock from around the pass side of the gearbox low down when rocking the engine by hand. Couldn't be related could it? Failing that, top mounts? When on left hand bends, it feels a lot like violent rumble strips Cheers

Cheers pal! I'll try this with the one I took out yesterday. And try get the drivers side off and do the same. Also, you mentioned lift off mate, but mine happens even if I'm accelerating. Is there nothing else that can cause knocking on left hand bends? It just sounds like something's...

I hope not mate. It's strange, I have exactly the same symptoms as before, it doesn't click on full lock going left or right, say out of junctions etc, just on fast left hand bends. I forgot to mention it before, just before I decided to change it, going around a round about, I'd hear a very...

I'll try that it in the morning, will spinning the wheels show any sign? I'm in Kent mate. How could I tell if the joint was clicking Thanks again

He did say a ph2 bud. I did make sure of this, and I had them both side by side and they looked identical. Unless its something less obvious.

When you say spec mate, what do you mean? It's just a normal 172, standard non cup. 51 plate. The guy said it was the same yeah, it was the same length, and there has been no change from before and after Chip and Danny- Well, the clicking happens under sharp left turns, can really feel it. I...

Not sure, presume so. Was off someone on here. Strange the symptoms haven't gone though

Right can anyone help, I replaced the drive shaft as before, under left turns at speed, i got a fast knocking/clicking, and could feel it in the car. I also had a whining/groaning coming fromthe same wheel. Iv replaced the shaft with a second hand one with a new cv on it , and it's doing...

Attached them for now, only way to make it work

f**k knows why, uploaded the same way as I always do, through the app.. Hold on
