I've had a creaking/knocking coming from my front drivers side wheel area, had a mechanic look at and listen to it today and he reckons its my top mount. Bearing gone or something...

The noise happens when turning right at low speeds and going over bumps

He looked over the rest of the suspension and can't see anything wrong

Basically before I buy one and get him to do it... Do top mounts go? Is it likely to be that? Bare in mind I have coilvers and the car is slammed so lots of stress on everything...

Ta, Jord

if its a clunking noise when going over bumps or small road imperfections when going slowly... its more than likely the top mount! I had this go on my old 206 Smile
