Daily Driver Engine Mounts

(1/5) > >>

daz_pd:
Hey All,
I have an Octavia VRS which is currently stage 2, I have a torque arm insert fitted which helped a bit, but I cant help but notice that the engine in this car rocks about a fair bit (especially when giving it the beans), has anyone any experience of a fairly subtle (or even OEM, eg S3 Mounts?) upgrade that will rectify this, without ruining my car as a daily driver, as my local roads are pretty rough!
for reference, I find the Neuspeed Insert acceptable except in reverse where it gives noticable vibrations, but I can live with it due to usually going forward!

vRS Carl:
I had all 3 VF Mounts in my Blue vRS and have got some more (VF Engine & Gearbox mount and REVO Pendulum mount which is a rebranded VF) for the Assassin. Yet to fit but they are fine even at 70mph. Make the car sound like 6pot turbo from in the Cabin. :evilgrin:

i have all 3 THS engine mounts and although at first i noticed i had them fitted, after a few miles they are unnoticeable!

daz_pd:
thanks guys! would I be correct in saying that the Top 2 would be OK for my needs? It seems like the bottom mount is a lot of work and surely my insert helps with that anyway?

personally id do all 3, the bottom one yes took 25mins longer but worth it for a complete solution.
