Message: <blockquote data-quote="Deleted member 31521" data-source="post: 788305">Went to pick car up. The mechanic told me that the bolts on the suspension on drivers side was not tight enough.This could easy have happen but I remember using the long breaker bar to tighten them up as much as I could. (I'm very strong). I'm always honest and they told me it failed.They tightened them up and helped aid to make it pass.. (Lucky for me and very helpful of them)On the drive home its making a strange noise. On that side we drive especially careful after hearing the noise.So I checked when we got home. The strut seemed to have slight play between the top hat and top nut.It just needed tightening up. And to be honest it was not making any noises on our test drive the day before.Must admit tho we only took it up the road and round a roundabout.I did expect this top nut to move slightly and was aware so drew on a line over as o was shown to do. So I could see if it had moved.Tightening it up had not been needed before tho because everything seemed fine.I will check over each of them with the torque wrench after a week or so as advised by them.So all is good now it was a shame I did not get to double check on everything. As at short notice as I started working again.With safety in mind it won't be driven much if any at all its just standing on the drive.And I will also definitely double check all up again shortly before and serious driving is done.Sent from my ASUS_T00P using <a href="http://r.tapatalk.com/byo?rid=73708" target="_blank">Micra Sports Club mobile app</a></blockquote>
