I've just had a K04 fitted (this morning) with the relevant power upgrade
and I was at the lights earlier and gave her a bit more welly than I should of and heard/felt a large bang and some thumping under the car, I pulled over and had a look underneath but it was a bit dark and only had my phone light so couldn't really see anything, I drove slowly home but when pulling away & changing gear there was something banging about in the gearbox/engine area.
I will take a proper look in the morning, but at the moment I'm thinking possibly engine mounts??? Or could it be something else?
edit.......
Today I managed to finish work before it got dark and get underneath, the pendulam mount has broken/come undone and the engine has shifted forward about 2inches
What damage could I have done? I haven't lost any water or oil but a bit worried what I may have damaged that I cant see.
