Hi
We had the Clio 1.2 16v Dynamique 2004 looked at today by a main dealer on a bonnet catch recall.
Of course they then "did us the favour" of looking over the car and presenting us with a visual health check sheet with repairs "required" to the value of £684.86.
Now I'm not one to hand over £30.77 to have a rear wiper blade replaced so obviously I will do that myself. But what I am after guys is some information and help to identify what parts the dealer is referring to when they say “Lower Engine Mount” and “Near Side Front Top Mount” in relation to Steering/Suspension.
They state the “Lower Engine Mount” is split and the “Near Side Front Top Mount” has play. Any photos, Renault part numbers or links to parts on eBay would be most gratefully received.
On eBay I have found some that specify they are a “rear engine mount”

And others that look pretty much the same thing are specified as “Lower Rear Gearbox Engine Mount”, but with a Renault part number of 8200155207

They both look to be the same thing to me!
Also the only thing can find in the Haynes manual is in the gearbox section and is called the “Engine Rear Mounting Link” and it looks like the one with the part number 8200155207.
Then there is another design on the other end of this link and seems to be called a dog bone quite a lot.

As for the “Near Side Front Top Mount” I have had no joy at all.
Thanks in advance.
