Engine Mounts? Posted by Bill Homer [Email] (#3427) [Profile/Gallery] (more from Bill Homer) on Tue, 9 Nov 2004 10:58:42 In Reply to: Buck and others, jacked it up and checked again..., aaron, Tue, 9 Nov 2004 10:35:19 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
I forgot what the symptoms were on your car, so sorry if this is not relevant. I also chased a clunk on my car, which was particularly noticable when starting out in first and second gears. In conjunction with some other work, I eventually replaced the ball joints, A-arm bushings, tie rod ends, sway bar bushings, but the car still clunked. What finally fixed it was tightening the top bolts for the lower engine mounts, which must have worked themselves loose (they were obviously loose once I had access to them). When I did the work, I applied a few drops of blue Loctite to the bolts, hope to never hear this noise again.
