IOWGENTRY 4 Posted January 13, 2006 Hi, I recently brought a new uprated bottom rear engine mount. It is a lot more solid than the last one, (which is a good thing) but I do seem to be getting extreme vibrations inside the car, Will it wear in and get better noise wise? If not is there anything I can do? Thanks Phill Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bren_1.3 1 Posted January 13, 2006 yes it will "wear in" eventually, but cabin vibration that comes through the engine mount will still be greater than it was with your albeit knackered old mount. the uprated bush will still give more cabin vibration than a new standard o.e mount anyway. im afraid your going to have to grin and bear it, or change it for an standard mount. perhaps youve gone overkill on the mount considering your old one failed?

j_turnell 137 3 Cars Posted January 13, 2006 Give it a couple of hundred and it will settle down by a fair bit, the noises will get alot less Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Anthony 1,003 Posted January 13, 2006 As said, it will settle down alot over how it is now. However, at the end of the day it's a stiffer mount than standard, and that means whilst you get less engine movement, it also transmits more vibrations from the engine to the bodyshell (and thus cabin).

Mad Professor 7 Posted January 14, 2006 Phill did you get the full kit or just the bottom mount, and did you get it / them from bmbaker like I said. Oh abit off topic, I got my car running sweet with the MS-II now, so anytime you want you can have a passanger ride. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
