hey guys, ive had this problem for a while, but only recently has it started to get worse.

when ever i turn left, i hear a knocking/clunking sound coming from the left of my car - im assuming its my engine mount. Is this what a broken engine mount sounds like when its busted? would it be covered under warranty? if not, about how much am i looking at to purchase a new one (labour also included).

cheers guys,

Chat later.

if u do have warranty, best would be to take it there get them to suss it out and help u out what it is, and depending on what was the clause on the warranty and where u purchased it would depend on if it can be done fixed by them. but only way is too see who u bought it of (mitsu or local car yard etc).

if they turn ya down (unlikely) bunch of guys on here might be able to shed some light

yeh not the engine mount, most prob yur cv's
would have got worse with the rain which would have washed out the grease if u have a split in yur boot
