After 140,000 km my upper engine mount finally gave way and yes there is more vibration when it doesn't work as designed. Read all the posts here and off to the hardware store to buy my 1" pipe flanges bolt & nut and washers OH yes I picked up the new bushing at the dealer, after work I fiquired i can spare a half hour for the task, some even said in thier posts 10 minutes after all I'm not a pro so 30 min. Well once it was too dark to work I said i'll try tomorrow with the biggest bolt that will fit through the bushing I tried again today with the same result Can't get that bushing in more than half way no matter how much force i use the old bushing did pop out once i hacksawed through it carefully. What do the dealers have a 100 tonne press in the back?
feels good to rant even if i am 6 hours older
