top mount bearings up the creek.

Common problem, wd-40 gets rid of it for a while but you need new ones to get rid of it properly.

I will be doing a tech article very soon on it.

remove strut, compress spring, undo nut on top of strut, remove top mounting plate, bearing is under there!

What renault do you go to?!?

You need 2 of them.

The top mounts 55 quid which you don't need unless its cracked.
