naffdave · 5th May 2011, 06:21

Ok after seeing Zeb yesterday (great guy) now know my juddering problem pendalum engine mount but cant find one Rimmers are out of stock and so far no joy anywhere else (im not paying a silly price for secondhand one) got to be new.

Anyone know where i can get one Please

You could buy a secondhand Mondeo one from 'Mondeo Spares' on e bay for an offer of £18. A little fettling needed and job done. better designed than the Rover item. If you don't fancy that then I believe that JULES has some.

Take a look here - just a straight replacement without the modifications needed with the mondeo part. Probably worth the extra cost.

Oops - just noticed it is for the petrol model and not reccomended for the diesel - sorry !

Agree with Wuzerks post above the mk3 mondeo mount is the way i would go,cheaper and more durable than the oem mount,simple to modify and fit you really cant go wrong.

BUT, is it acceptable in terms of noise / vibration from the engine being suppressed?

To be honest Zeb i cannot tell the difference it really is that good and i am comparing it to the perfect oem one on my previous 75 cdti saloon.

I converted a new mondeo unit for £65. I would have looked at this if I had seen it, but would worry about it been too rigid. The vibration on mine is 10 time better, and only vibrates, when cold at 750RPM-and then only on the steering.
Nothing I cant live with now,

Keep us updated.
