D5 Auto ('06) rumbles on load turning left!

Ark Royal · Nov 27th, 2020, 23:50

Evening all, as above my car rumbles from somewhere that seems to be in the drivers footwell when accelerating moderately particularly when turning left. It doesn't do it when turning right and when straight only with hard acceleration.

I have replaced front wheel bearings and drive shafts which has made no difference.

Any suggestions what could be causing this?
Alternatively is there a specialist in these cars in the south east I can trust?
Thanks in advance
David

Check all of the engine mounts.

+1 particularly the rear mount as that can allow the gearbox and angle gear flange to contact subframe and heat shield on an XC90.

I have replaced all of my mounts including the gearbox torque mount.

The engine mount under the crank pulley was well and truly past it's best on mine.

Check subframe bolts are tight too....

Thanks guys, rear and side mounts were both totally shot. Driving like a different car now
