Opened the bonnet tonight to stick the green cone filter and SFS induction hose on and I saw this :S:

I had the N/S replaced 3 months ago before I started driving the BMW round. This was given the all clear by the MOT at the time so I didn't bother replacing it although I've read its better to replace both at the same time!!

No idea how long it's been like it! (Car's on 81,180 miles roughly)

Safe to drive to work?

If its tight and the wheels are turned in that picture, I wouldn't worry.

If its loose and your wheels are straight, worry.

lol top mounts move around depending on wheel position, so when on lock they will look funny
