Have had a 'creaking' when I accelerate in my GTi-6. It was suggested that it might be the o/s engine mount, so I took the mount off to have a look at the chassis underneath it and found that it has massively cracked. So much that a piece has come away from the chassis. The mount itself was basically completely loose....

Anyone know a place near Northampton that I can get this welded up properly???? Have PM'd daveyboy but he's down in Southampton, which is a bit far and I need to get it sorted next weekend as the MOT is due the following week.

Thanks,

That almost looks like it's been repaired before but badly! I know Southampton is a trek from Northampton but it could be worth it. Daveyboy did mine and it was outstanding workmanship! Any good welder should be able to do it though bud, can daveyboy send you the bits ready cut?
