Hi to all,
After putting in the new rear-engine mount over weekend, the ride overall has greatly improved, and the loud pop/creaking noise has diminished, but is still present during turning, and breaking. I wonder if the strut is the issue, the engine mount under the crank pulley, or some part of the suspension on on the right (passenger) side. I have walked besides the car and tried to pinpoint where the noise seems to be coming from, and it appears to be at the base/bottom of strut, but not sure if it is that, the engine mount near the crank pulley, or perhaps the sub-frame, which my mechanic removed over a year ago.
Any advice, as always is extremely appreciated-and if anyone has any torque settings for the subframe bolts, I'd like to just check that to make sure that was put back properly.
