Tell them to check the engine mount, the one under the engine at the bottom. it only takes a few minutes to fix.
Replacement new car courtesy of Peugeot UK perhaps? Hope the new mounts work for ya thoughbradshaw said:Car in the dealers again this morning, tightened up the engine mounts, still the same. They have ordered new mounts which will take a few days to arrive. God knows how long this saga is going to last, spoke to the mechanic doing the job, he said he was baffled, if new mounts don't do the trick, they dont know what to try next.
I reckon that your car is in good working order, so either you fancy the receptionist or you just like the benefit of the courtesy car wash :lol:bradshaw said:Just had a phone call from my dealer to say that the new engine mounts have arrived, going in again tomorrow for them to be fitted , they reckon a couple of hours work. I am such a regular at my dealers that they take me home and pick me up again when the work is done! If this dose not work, god knows what to try next!
CRY nobody would blame ya :thumbdown:bradshaw said:Picked my car up this afternoon, noise not quite as bad as it was but still there, they only replaced the bottom mount. What next??
I really do like your style :clap: Congratulations on the new purchase. Just goes to show that the easiest fix is sometimes the last to be tried. Image what it has cost !! Thankfully not you and thankfully it has been sorted for the new owner :clap:bradshaw said:Car in the dealers again yesterday, 18th time for same problem. Finally cured, after spending a small fortune on new parts the problem all along was cured by loosening the engine mounts and re torquing them! After 18 Mths though my paitence has finally expired. Ordered a new 208 GTI lasr night in white, delivery next week. The test drive did the trick, the gearbox felt much slicker,the suspension felt a world apart from my Z, after seeing the interior with its DAB radio and a full size spare wheel in the boot I was hooked. After all that it was still an experience to own my Z for 2 years. :beer:
