markyboy 0 Posted April 7, 2007 Report Share Posted April 7, 2007 Was driving down the road eirlyer and noticed the car didnt feel the same, I was feeling bumbs in the road a bit harder, And then hearing what i fort at first was the splitter hiting the road every now and then, got to the stage were this was happning to offen, so i pulled over to have a look under the car and the sump seemed really low to the floor. I open the bonnet and notice the engine is way to far forward, so im guessing its the front engine mount thats gone?just wonderd if theese are commen to go? As i have a reciept for 1 with the paper work for the car. And if its worth changing the rear aswell now that its had to do a 2 man job on it's own Link to post Share on other sites
