205mattgti 0 Posted June 24, 2007 (edited) i have a stainless steel magnax 4 branch manifold it knocks like anything on the bulk head has anyone else got this problem, i am running all the baker bushes engine mounts so its not caused by sloppy worn out mounts any ideas how to stop the knocking without getting heavy with a big hammer many thanks matt Edited June 24, 2007 by jackherer Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jackherer 543 Posted June 24, 2007 What are the exhaust hangers like? If they are soft then the exhaust can move a lot even if you have decent engine mounts. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
205mattgti 0 Posted June 24, 2007 sorry forgot to say i have replaced all the rubber hangers with new ones i have the complete Baker uprated engine mount set so the engine doesnt move Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hengti 2 Posted June 24, 2007 could it be that the engine isn't located properly on the new mounts - ? and is it deffo the bulkhead? only reason i ask is that the middle box on some systems can knock against the exhaust tunnel Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Richie-Van-GTi 74 2 Cars Posted June 24, 2007 check the gear links between stick and the subframe as they sometimes knock here. A simple slight bend in the linkage sorts it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
