I need new motor mounts and am wondering what combo of oem mounts would be best for a MKII Diesel? All solid rubber? All hydraulic? G60 mounts? Hockey pucks?
I have had good success with nothing solid but just new rubber OEM versions. G60 is a good Idea, hydraulic sucks.
Hm i'll give all rubber a shot. Right now I'm running pure jello. It's way to soft.
You will curse yourself if they are too hard lol. Trust me! :p
I like the prothane polyurethane inserts in my mkI but 've never driven a mkII diesel. I'd say at least go for the g60 "upgrade" though.
Sorry, what's the G60 upgrade? How does it compare with the stock MK2?
Mine has a hydraulic front and seems OK (certainly less bone jarring than my Mk1)
i just did the rear mount ... the one under the turbo... wow its like a new car to drive... and it was a stock one i had sitting here ....lol
mk2 motor mounts are way nicer than mk1 motor mounts. mk1 diesels are like the roughest VWs on planet earth, even with good mounts. ive got brand front, rear, and passenger side mount, all aligned right, and everything, still vibrates the crap out of my dash tho.
If I recall correctly the G60 mount is a solid rubber tranny mount. I can't remember. I read something about it on vortex and have been meaning to look it up again.
