Me again!!

Sorry, I know I'm a pain!

OK, On one of the taxis that I have, whenever I put the car into reverse, the engine lifts up slighlty and the air filter housing starts banging into the bulk head causing an almighty rattling noise.

Any ideas how I can solve this other than trying to wedge something between the top of the air filter housing and bulk head??

Regards

Put the right one on, or change the engine mounts

That is usually the eng mountings snapped or the nuts backed off

Hi all

An update!

I had the steering box reconditioned and for some strange reason the car seems to vibrate less and the air filter doesn't seem to bang against the bulk head anymore.
