Turd :( Engine STILL knocking after Powerflex doggie bone

[jinjur]

So yeah,

Powerflex'ed the dogbone the other night and while i noted the car buzzes like a dildo now, the knock under bongo hard acceleration or axle tramp is still there...

I have replaced the gearbox upper about a month ago too so was hoping the noise would have gone.

Tell me ill not have to do the others too ffs?

On a 50K car?

Tried the engine mount? I had this. I loosened off all 4 bolts, pulled forward and tightened up.

 

[jinjur]

Aye, gave this a go Will but to be fair, not since th ePFlex went on.

Might go out and give it a hauling now and test it tomorrow

Cheers

As above, my mount was fine, the bolt was snapped in half though lol

New stud and half hour and all sorted with no horrid knocking

Brand new too.
