Boost then vibrates terrible

Discussion in 'Mechanical - Engine, Gearbox, Exhaust etc' started by Northy 8, Jun 8, 2014.

  1. Just been in the car 1st time boost then something happened
    Not revving up right and a lot of vibration through the car
    Not sure weather to drive it or not
    Any ideas
    Cherrs
     
  2. Boost pipe come off ?
     
  3. Seems more near the battery side
    I reckon as it came on boost hard in 2nd it gripped it may of snapped a gearbox mount etc you think
     
  4. I'll be surprised if you've snapped a gear box mount
     
  5. Something is well odd
    When setting off the noise is so loud
     
  6. Check the top left engine mount, the bolt could of snapped and the engine will drop slightly, I've had 2 snap
     
  7. Will do which bolt snaps mate
     
  8. Main engine mount bolt top left hand side of the engine, you'll see the bolt through the mount mate
     
  9. I think your spot on mate must of snapped
    Like u say I bet it's left the rest in the thread
    I guess u need to support the engine
    The banging from start off is because the engine has dropped
    So drive shafts etc are effected
     
  10. Yes jack the car up , get a block of wood and ten get another jack to support the weight , it's an easy job to do mate and you can buy just the bolt from Renault
     
  11. I guess it's a part only from Renault
    Cheers
     
  12. To be honest it's just a standard bolt that you can get from a fasteners store, will cost about £1, from Renault their about £6
     
  13. It happened today when I had the semi slicks fitted in soft compound
    Instead of spinning it must of gripped hard and went to the weakest point
    Any idea on exact bolt size to match 1 up mate
     
  14. Sorry no I got mine from main dealer
     
  15. I'm guessing this could have happened me on Saturday. I was pulling off from the lights and there was a loud clunking noise and then some heavy vibration and extra noise. There was not any heavy acceleration from the lights so I'm not sure really hopefully its just the engine mount.
