QIKXR6T Member 25 Member For: 14y 8m 9d Gender: Male Posted 19/07/10 03:38 AM Share Posted 19/07/10 03:38 AM Hi All,I purchased a bf mk2 f6 Typhoon a couple of weeks ago. Its a zf 6sp auto, with about 60,000kms and stock standard. Iv noticed whenever I accelerate hard and then back off, the car seems to be making a loud thumping sound which sounds like its coming from the engine bay. My thoughts are it could maybe be the engine mounts, but is there any way of narrowing it down to what it could be? Has anyone had a similar issue?Regards,David Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When my engine mount went the engine lift point near at the top of the motor put a tear in that stuff. If that is marked in the same spot as the lift point busted engine mount. Or put your foot on the brake and load it up and have a mate look at the engine while u load it up. If it twists there u go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought mine sounded like it was coming from the rear though, so I suspected the usual bush squashing/bolt hitting the housing. Haven't considered it might be the engine mounts, just out of warranty too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
