Hi All,
I just wanted to be comprehensive so below is a link to a videos of the new ADT blue print LCA bushing that I installed (OE spec), the action seems very similar to the worn out one it replaced, and I haven't really noticed any improvements. Initial noise complaint is still there but seems less frequent for some reason. I want to say that the warmer temperatures in summer made it worse? or this new bushing may have improved things..

Also this is a clip I took of the top mount as seen under the bonnet. Nothing amazing going on and the culprit noise did not make an appearance on this drive but you can see some movement 27 seconds in.

can any one notice anything out of the ordinary?
This issue has dropped in priority; the driver side rear shock is weeping excessively and with a fully loaded car the rear suspension gets noisy so some replacements are on their way, and to top things off the front drivers brake caliper noise which I thought I had fixed with new discs, pads, pins, grease and all new hardware etc has come back with a vengeance after only 5 months! so might need new calipers, unless this is somehow related to the initial noise complaint... I give up.
