My father in law came up today, while I was planning on having a day off with the kids and said could I check all his undertray was bolted on correctly as he thought a speed hump might have clipped it
Anyway I jacked it up and checked it and thought I'd replace a couple of missing screws, so while at it I'll remove it and clean it.... Then once removed I thought I'll check the lower mount, with the mount fitted it looked fine but I got the inspection lamp on it and thought I might remove it and check it...
Oh what a surprise
As you can see it looks ok, but experience tells me to look further
And as you can see this mount was past its best, as soon as I put a screwdriver in it and pulled the splits became obvious.
So new mount fitted and undertray done and clean.
Morale of this long winded story, a quiet day off at home with your tools won't last long!!,but you might just achieve something good
AND NEVER PRESSUME YOUR LOWER MOUNT IS OK FROM JUST LOOKING.
