ECP is that Eurocarparts.

Or ECP on ebay?

Remember you need the one with slots in for a diesel, the one i added the link.

Petrol one is without the slots in the poly bush.

Also use the original centre it as a nylon sleeve.

Do the slots allow a bit more movement compared to the solid ones? EPC euro car parts selling the solid version for diesels.

Hi Rich.
Yes the solid one would be to harsh for the diesel you would get quite a lot of vibration from it, ECP are wrong the solid poly bush if for the petrol engine.

I had a very little part in the poly bush for the diesel, if you have a spare hour take a journey through the past :}

For a diesel poly lower engine mount you need this one.

Use the original centre out of your old mount.

So Ive read through the thread.... by eck!
Just to clarify I really only notice a problem when I switch off the engine.


The engine does move more than I would have expected as a front to back rock? Is this the tear drop? I can also see some signs of the engine cover been rubbed and polished???


regards
Rich

Hi Rich.
Sounds like it, but it only takes about 30 minutes to jack car up on axle stands or use ramps if you have some, remove the undertray, then remove the tear drop mount and inspect.
