Very. Top mounts should be replaced every 5-6 years / 60,000 - 80,000 miles. Having fuct topmounts would make for some pretty sloppy suspension. Can't imagine the tracking or tyre wear would be fantastic either.

I've had trouble with them in the past, and wondered if maybe they'd improved...I guess not!

Had a think about it, and saw AMD's google rating, and decided to leave a google review.

Hopefully others will see it when they search for AMD Essex online and it will save them some grief!

Nope.

I was conscious of the fact; that there is always bigger fish in the pond than yourself.

What? The big guys, they weren't the ones everyone worried about. It was their smaller smart-mouthed mates they'd send in to cause trouble.

Anyways, it was a pretty geeky thing to say, Sam. Just checking for your inner nerd.
