The real problem with my downpipewasloose motor mounts. My new downpipe is installed right, but the motor mounts are loose cauing my engine to torque too much. How much of a job is it to replace the motor mounts on a 225quattro. Is this somethingI should bring in to a dealer to fix, or is this something I could do myself? How much will this cost doing it myself vs. a dealer?

 

the motor mounts are available through 42 draft designs

As far as I know you can do it yourself unless someone tells otherwise.

 

You most likely just need dogbone inserts. Not a hard job, should only take 20-30mins if you have an idea bout what you are doing. If you still want to do engine/tranny mounts, go to 034motorsports and get some street density mounts. Just dont get the dogbone mount from 034 since they charge you another $50 or so for the dogbone assembled and its a simple job.

 

If 034 is a bad place to get them, whats a good website to order them from?

This may seem likea stupid question but.......where exactly do you mount those?

 

Well you want the motor mounts from them and just get the dogbone inserts from either ECStuning or TTstuff and install those yourself. The engine mount holds the engine in place on the passanger side, the tranny mount holds the engine and tranny in place on the drivers side and the dogbone holds the tranny to the frame rail behind the engine to stop front to back movements.

 

Do you want the ECS Dogbone mount kit with stretch bolts or without the streatch bolts?

 

I got the ecs kit with the bolts, dont really need them, but its nice to replace them

 

get the street mounts from 034motorsports.com they are 235 for both mounts and a great upgrade and next month i will be installing them...along with the coil pack cover... P.S get the new stretch bolts for a peiece of mind you will need 8 bolts total 4long and 4short

 

best to shop around for best prices, 034 not usually, ECS great service but $$$ black forest industries BFI has good prices + quick delivery, remember its the delivered cost to compare!!!
