Anti roll bar clearance?!

[Scott.c]

When I had my car on the ramp the other day I noticed the anti roll bar is very close to the shell. Anybody else have the same? Could be the cause of the knocking noise.

Yeah was thinking that! I don't really have a knocking noise it's more like creaking noise. It's the top mounts I'm pretty sure!

Possibly, I got spare top mounts in my garage but it's finding time to swap them over

Cars being too low can cause a knocking anti-roll bar but yours looks ok :/

I hit a pot hole at about 90 on a motorway the other day and I thought my wheel got ripped off it sounded horrible!!! Got a squeak from the passenger side from then, pretty sure it's the top mount.

When does it squeak just generally?
When cornering, when hitting a bump?

Check rear engine mount. Mine was loose and caused a loud squeak over bumps . 3 bolts.

I'd agree with top mounts
Try wishbone bushes and anti roll bar bushes too

That's tight and in good condition. Only put the engine in 2700 miles ago.

When I jacked it up to change the wheels over, I grabbed the strut and gave it a good wobble and there was a bit of movement so I'm going with top mounts.
