Default Top mounts...........

While checking my levels this morning before taking the car out, i was leaning over and rested on the top mount and it moved and spun round!!!! It turns out there both loose!!!! Obviously they forgot to torque the nuts up properly.

I think this might have something to do with the creaking sound from the front, that i assumed was ungreased or dry poly bushes.

Anyone know the torque setting for the top mount nuts?

Cheers.
