182 manifold vibration issue

[172_nick]

I fitted a 182 manifold to my 172 on Saturday. However it's vibrating against the subframe and/or anti roll bar. anyone got any idea how to sort this out?

Thanks

Main engine mount....


Losen off and pull the engine all the way forward, this should resolve the issue.

you'll find that's a common problem and as a result many 182 manifolds have a big fat dent there.

this is prob a stupid question but which one is the main engine mount? is it the one on top on the drivers side

yeah but you need both loosened to get the good result..

one under battery tray + the driverside one

not a result Mark ; the dent is Renault trying to cure it..

The 182 manifold i have does have this dent but it still touches. also touches the subframe bit further up so it's def to far foawrd. Will do both engine mounts tomorrow.

Thanks for the advice guys
