vibration

[dav 0]

Hello

 

Just done a load of work on my VR amongst the things I changed was the rear engine mount.

 

Plus points: I have greatly reduced engine movement

 

Negative points: seem to have a lot more vibration now?

 

I have a VT front mount fitted already but I remember there being some kind of trick like letting the engine idle for a while with out the mount nuts tightened up the let them settle in?

 

True????

 

 

Thanks

Yeah if you fitted just a rear mount. undo the gear box and front mount then push pull the engine then re torque all mount nuts. Was it a standard rear mount you fitted?

Thanks Steve

 

yep the rear is standard and the gearbox mount is the tdi one (heavy duty?)

 

it was a proper pain to change though i had to remove the bracket.

 

do you knoe the torque setting?

 

Thanks

Dav.
