knock from front end

[will 2]

i've got this knock/clunk from some where on the front when pulling off, i,ve have changed the bone shaped mount underneath but is still there, tried to rock the engine manualy and also by jerking the clutch, there is a bit of engine movement but nothing i could see to say thats the problem. Any one had this before?? the car has done 110000mls

Sticking caliper that siezes when the car is stationary?

[VIPERONE]

Does it occur also when you change to 2nd gear sometimes etc..?

only happens in 1st, ok after that.


no problems when brakeing hard.


all the brakes are new calipers are free, and front disc are also new.

Same here - A clunking noise when pulling away. And then also the same kind of noise when coming to a stand still. Usually does it just after I've let the clutch out, or when I'm dipping the clutch coming to a stop (though I doubt it's got anything to do with it - just so happens to be around that point).

Used to do it in my 205 too

I've got just the same problem with mine, only does it in first when pulling away, sure its an engine mount, just haven't got round to finding which one. There doesn't seem much movement on the engine though when you rock it about by hand
