@dazza.

Just a thought.

DMF will usually shudder when taking up drive in first gear, if it's really bad you'll hear a clunk for sure.
My GTI did what your is doing before I replaced the gearbox mount and now all fixed  :grin:

I had a friend who's car vibrated/shuddered on take off from stand still first or second gear and that was her DMF but she never replaced it until was too late and broke down. not saying your going to break down  :smiley:

I have found the golf mounts to be the weakest link for our engines when it comes to stabilising the engine. poly bushes are  the best solution and always recommended although the gear box and engine mount bushing are ridiculously priced.  :sad1: dog bone mod is a cheap mod and helps quite a bit.  :happy2:

The mounts would be an easier fix than the dmf, not sure how much movement there should be. This is a vid i took a while back since then i have changed the cambelt.

Thanks for the video dazza, the engine isn't meant to move like that!!! was it easy to move with less force?.
This should be a sticky for gearbox mount failure :jumping:

Thanks

Did you renew the engine mount bolts when you done the cam belt Dazza?

Pesky jones:
So if your engine rocks like dazzas video, your gearbox mount is failed?

ive had the engine reved in park mode before and watched the engine and it rocks back and forth maybe an inch. I'll have to take the cover off and rock it like dazza did to see. Is he just rocking the whole engine?
