Click sound in engine bay sometimes when braking

[wongy]

Sometimes when i brake in 1st or 2nd gear there's a small sound in the engine bay, i know its the engine bay cuz i can hear it from the interior =\ doesn't sound good, and do not know where or what the problem is, any help?

Engine mounts.. check for them being worn ect

[theHKway]

yep. sounds like engine mounts

Could be coilovers if you have them... but wouldnt happen suddenly

You'd know if it's engine mounts if it thumps really hard and loud when you go hard.

[wongy]

doesn't really thump really hard when i go hard, but sometimes when i brake it has the sound =\ im a noob at cars and dunno if there would be something wrong with my engine mounts, mayb i should take it down to someone or somewhere to check it out =\ and when in idle or cruising, my car shakes alot, i think it is my engine mounts =[

yep.. it may be worn but not 100% gone.. They OEM dont last long in these cars.. Get after market ones.. hasport ect

[wongy]

Will do, thx everyone

[Karl]

Changing engine mounts are pretty easy with the right tools.. Need spanner set and ratchet set. And jack to support engine when mounts off.. Do 1 mount at a time!!

And wd40 for stuben bolts

Anyone wanna offer to help me.when i get new.engine mounts? xD

[Stephen_AUS]

check them first if they have split, if its split, they most likely from engine mounts.
