It wasn't that sort of sound. It was a dull sound. Since I made this video, I had to replace the front springs for the MoT (1 was broken) and I noticed that the strut top mounts were past thier best and now they need replacing but that's another story.
Looks like identical top mounts to my 308, they wear very easily and cause noises and the strut top bearings are soft too, just after doing both mine and cured a very annoying rattle lol
@@eldodos83 I had the strut tops replaced at the same time as the springs. They're probably similar to the 308 ones. I hadn't seated them quite right whne I replaced the dampers hence the rattle.
Are you comparing me to the legendary Michael Crawford? I'm not quite as funny as him but I do my own stunts like he did in "Some Mothers Do 'Ave 'Em".
Would be good if i could hear the noise when you were driving rather than the music so I could hear if it’s the same noise my car makes
Much appreciated mate !
So was it the top mounts or the arb links that fixed it in the end?
It was the top mounts.
Thanks for the video....😊
Thanks for your kind words.
Hello, may I ask how the rattle sounded like? Was it kind of a knocking noise coming out of a small (plastic) box? All the best, Phil

@@Parknest Thanks for your answer. :)
A shitroen driving like a dream pmsl
It wasn't all the fault of the car. If I'd replaced the outer CV joints, I'd have saved myself a lot of hassle.
