Hello all, I think my top mounts are dying or have died.
Each first drive of the day gives me a real creaking sound as if the top mount is moving.
Given my car is 101k now, and using the electric damping shocks, they are likely dead as well.
I've found monroe electrical controlled shocks, for £360 a pair front and rear, or I could go Bilstein non- electric controlled route and do away with the mode button, for a sole single set up.
I don't drive it hard and it won't see a track..I have my Focus RS for that.
It's just a daily car.
Can I ask what people think and what they've done when met with the same issues?
Can I go the non electric controlled route? Would I have to code out the signal on being unplugged?
Or is this creaking a normal sound.
On driving, it's not banging or giving any vague steering.
Last MOT did identify a light misting of oil on the front, but on inspection I can't see any oil staining on any of the damper tubes.
What are my options guys??....
Cheers for the input
Wayne.
