I have got one leaking shcok absorber, but I have been having problems before.

They have been a really annyoing squeeking sound when going over speedbumps, I used to put this down to the bushes but I have had them replaced so Im thinking I might well not be them.

The only parts not changed on my car have been the top mounts could they be causing it?

It sounds almost rubbery kind of squeeking though, I have also not changed the clips for the ARB so it might be them

Have you changed the ARB bushes, Sam?

When you had your coilovers fitted you should of fitted new top mounts and top mount bushes.
When I done my coilovers I replaced both, good job too as the top mount bushes were nearly fooked.

aha top mount bushes, need them fitting methiks.

got the part numbers and price

I'm guessing that what is meant is top mountings and top mounting bearing - your dealer will be the best place to get the latest version of these parts - they will know the P/Ns
