Knocks and Creaks doing my head in

[ron130888]

Hi,

I'm hoping somebody on here can point me in the right direction with some noises I am getting from my 172 which have gradually got worse over the last 2 months..

I know without physically hearing the noises, it is difficult to diagnose, but could just do with some pointers to save on labour time in the garage.

First one is a creaking noise - this only happens on full right hand lock? Would this be the top mounts or something else?

Second one is a knocking/thud noise when pulling away slowly on clutch, first gear or reverse makes no difference. Would this be an engine mount or the dog leg mount?

Car is a 2003, 107k miles.

Any help/pointers would be greatly appreciated

These should stop the noise on full lock: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/RENAULT-C...rParts_SM&fits=Model:Clio&hash=item1e6c3e61b4

It honestly does mate, Have a look through our feedback on eBay!

The noise can be down to other things though.
