OK, so over the weekend I started to feel an abnormal amount of vibration coming from the engine. I took it into the garage this morning for the lads to take a look at it for me. They deduced that it was the top engine mount which is actually an oil filled damping system.
Apparently the power of the engine has proved to much for it. So bearing in mind that the original has coped with 100K miles, they have replaced it with a brand new direct replacement version which hopefully will be good and up to the task in hand.
The other three engine mounts have been replaced with new poly bush versions, so wondering whether this may have contributed to the damper one going U/S on me or whether it was just it's time?
Anyone have any ideas as to what I can do to strengthen the top mount or should I just keep an eye on it for the moment? :blink:
