This morning I was driving to work and i heard a few grinding noises (same noise as when i start the car up), it then stopped and about 2mins after my engine light came on!!
Coming from an driver who has owned both (DC5S and DC5R) I have to say i prefer the DC5R, the DC5S was great but the leather seats just didnt do it for me..
I have had SKUNK2 springs put in my previous car (DC5S) and the ride was good for the first few weeks but than shocks were starting to bitch out haha..
Must be common with the mounts in the DC5S to fail when they get around the 60000-70000k mark.. But then again it all depends on how the car is driven.
Over the last few days i was experiencing vibrations coming from the engine bay.. after looking over it I have found it was the right hand side engine mount that has broken (see pic below)
