traceytrax Posted April 11, 2010 Report Posted April 11, 2010 Hi, Was driving yesterday & pulled up at a junction & heard/felt a big clunk under front of car! Tried to drive but felt vibration & movement at front of car. Called out breakdown & a bolt had sheared off of an arm under front/middle of car. After looking at Haynes i am guessing that this is the Engine roll restrictor. breakdown guy tried to fix a new bolt but he said that the thread had gone & i would need a new arm? Can anyone tell me how much this will cost & the best place to purchase it from? and more importantly what the part name is! Thanks & i just love this Forum! :) Quote
