Hello all,
Thanks Klaus for your suggestions to fix my problems. The lower mount down by the crank pulley is ok and on further inspection, the upper engine mount is shot. The superseded square rubber mount flops around within its mount and doesnt seem much better than the original. My question is : has anyone used the round poly mount such as supplied by ipd, and on a scale of 1 to 10, how much has the vibration increased in the cabin? Also, is there any benefit of securing the engine mount crossbar more securely to the strut towers? I have shoved bits of heater hose into the square mount to improve my lot at the moment and the lower transmission mount is new oem rubber. Looking forward with thanks to your opinions.
David
