Morning All,

Hit a pothole not long ago. Now when I am turning the steering it makes a clicking noise (I'm pretty sure it's the top mount)

Out of this list, what brand would people go with? I'd swing towards KYB because of the price. I know SKF probably are the best quality however.

I bought a Febi one a while back.  Threads were poor and stripped out before torque value even reached.  Personally, after that experience I'd get a genuine Peugeot one - https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/PEUGEOT-306-P...xyJ8ZRh3mp and buy some SKF bearings separately from http://www.mister-auto.co.uk/en/suspensi...002!T.html. (GSF or ECP will probably do them too).
genuine pug or febi bilstein are what i used when i replaced all the suspension parts.
I would have said Febi Bilstein... Wondering if there are fakes as I found threads ruined very quickly
Do the strut top mounts actually wear though? Of all the 306 struts I've stripped down, all have been fine being thrown back together with new bearings.
