well i took my bro to his xmas party, first tim e he's been in the pug.

good news is that the gearbox whine he said just sounds dry so new oil all should be good.

bad news is that the knocking noise on the near side front is either a top mount or ball joint!!!!!

Are these expensive???

any one know???

It's the punctuation joint. You have worn it out.

drop link is a piece of piss to fit and is no more than £15 to buy same withthe ball joint.

The top mount is a different matter as it comes in 2 parts, the full kit costs £50 and is a bit of a nightmare to fit
