Rickpercy87 Posted October 21, 2013 Report Share Posted October 21, 2013 I would like to replace the mounts myself. Iv'e seen a few youtube videos and think I can take on the task haha.Does anybody know where the engine/transmission mounts are located on the tdi? My car is shaking at idle and is getting slowly worse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeoffD Posted October 21, 2013 Report Share Posted October 21, 2013 there are three, one on the leftside of the engine bay (the obvious one), one underneath the battery tray (the gearbox mount) and one between the back of the engine and the crossmember (sometimes called the dogbone mount). quite easy to do yourself Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dblock Posted October 27, 2013 Report Share Posted October 27, 2013 Vw dealers seems the only place. I've had a look pretty hard lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rich Posted October 27, 2013 Report Share Posted October 27, 2013 Kinda.You can use the engine side yes, the gearbox side is specific but is only £35 on ebay & the dogbone one will benefit from you just fitting a polybush into the original.If you speak to Al at Awesome GTI he will tell you which bush you need for the dogbone.
