    Yeah someone else on here had one completely distintegrate and mine has gone loose and now spins. When I went to remove it when I did the farb it had spun a full 180 degrees and due to the way the relief is cut in its top surface, couldn't get the dam thing out of the steering crossmember without skinned knuckles.

    Hoyhoy.

    I would like to jump in here to share something that I found recently with the vibra-technics left gearbox mount, I'm sure I was the first to get these mounts in Aussie so I had the earlier mount from before about two years ago which were a sh*t design.
    Only found this fault when I went to bleed the clutch which is done after removing the air filter box, battery & the left engine mount.
    I had been chasing this clunking noise for sometime & then wallah.
    I've been in contact with them & all they would tell me was that the earlier design was redesigned with no sympathy to my case.
    So I had a good look @ the original mount & found it to be much better than their earlier model.
    If ya a look @ the shiny metal part, you'll see what I mean.
    The round collars done nothing, I wasn't too happy, but found the standard one great.
    The right hand mount is a different story, much better.

    Hooroo.

    Im guessing your cupholder is useless now, had the superpro in mine for about a year, the rattling of the cupholder drove me mad!

    Back to the stock mount now

    Cup holder blew apart before I got my Polo. So that vibration is the least of my concerns.

    The Race dogbone isn't even that bad IMO.

    Vibratechnics mounts are great but $600 is a lot of money if you don't need them. My gearbox one was flogged out, the engine one I would put back in if I had to.

    I had a 9N previous to the gti and the engine mounts failed.
    May be expensive but the stock gear won't last forever.
    Preventative maintenance!
