Top mount is the big rubber bit at the top of the suspension, it has a bearing in it and they can fail.Its more promenent when doing it at low speeds, like turning into a carparking space for example. ________________________________________ Dimma + Gt35 turbo = Solid rear beam mounts £130 07889376885 Dan |
