Engine mount I would say

Is it not just the wheels bouncing fighting for grip

 

[steve_172]

yes i thought it was wheel spin but it just doesnt sound too healthy, most of the time its never a problem just when wet really. mark, why would the engine mount cause this noise? thanks for your time guys.do you get any noise like this on your 182?

The mounts arent strong enough and allow the engine to move back and forth creating a noise. Ideally if its under warranty, renault should replace the mount, or if out of warranty try getting some made up from an aftermarket supplier.
