I've got the single alternator instead of the multi rib setup which is the best for the conversion so I'm told. I had a look today and I think the problem might be to much play in my engine mounts. | |

Looked at my chassis leg tonight and there is signs of the alternator hitting the leg. How do I go about fixing it? Solid mounts? Baeating the chassis leg? | |

sounds daft, but is it your suspention top mount that has play in it? so everytime you boot it, it will move about, mine are fucked in my polo, started as a grinding noise under hard brakeing and acceleration, now it just bangs | |

I had/have same problem every now and again I pull away fast I have a odd noise from drivers side front like the wheel gets pulled back and rubs even though it dont. That's the only way I can describe it. | |

Can you get a video of the noise? | |

Not very fast, it does almost instantly when pulling away so about 5mph. It made a similar noise before and it was the heatshield behind the disc rubbing against it, just so we know what kind of noise I'm on about. | |

How fast do you need to be going? Could try getting pushed with the engine off if you want to rule out anything engine. | |

Would it not be clicking if a CV joint was away? Fitted all new CV boots and put new grease in them all. | |

Its not the engine hitting the chassis, theres not much movement in the mounts anyway. | |

When pulling away quickly in the Corsa its making a grinding noise. Sounds like theres no material left on the pads, like metal to metal. Doesn't do it when driving normal though :boggle: |
