    Engine mounts?

    So I've already had two engine mounts replaced under warranty, and I'm fairly certain I've just busted another after some spirited dirt road driving.

    Does anyone have an updated set they can recommend?

    Well, I ended up getting mine from VW Audi Seat Skoda Specialists | Parts Service Modifications as the Australian distributor didn't reply to my email for over a week.

    Fitted them up last night, and all is running well. Turns out my L/H (gearbox) mount wasn't even broken. $600 well spent...

    Bit more noise, bit more vibration etc as you'd expect.

    Did you get a set of all three? I'm keen, it's a lot of money but I am concerned my gearbox mount is already busted. I know the torque arm is new and the engine side is new as well, so maybe it's not worth the outlay.

    I got the two - Engine RHS and Gearbox LHS. I've already got a SuperPro (road) poly bush in the torque arm.

    Just reviving an old thread rather than starting a new one.
    I am looking at upgrading the engine mounts when I mount the larger turbo.

    The links in the previous posts are dead.
    I am guessing the links below are the same items:
    Left Hand Side Gearbox Mount Including Dsg - Vibra-Technics Compliance Technology
    Rhs Engine Mount - Vibra-Technics Compliance Technology

    Are these the only choice as an upgraded engine mount for the polo's?

    For the people with these installed, how is the increased vibration for normal street driving?
    Cheers, Greg.
