Totally agree. Almost happened. I bought the stands next time. They were actually cheap and I hid them next to the spare wheel.

Good method. Never thought about it. Thanks

Too bad the lower half broke for you, this was a genius idea. These are quite hard to get pressed in. Done it in a press myself and was a challange as the plastic casing deforms when you try to press it in. I grinded the edges a little more so they would seek bether.

Freezing it helps from deforming but you got to move quick. Thaws out fast.

so i justdid this job and it is a real pain. I would strongly advise anyone that does not have acess to a press to not do it himself. Even with a press it is very challenging. If you want to do it yourself, buy at leat 2 of the lower mount because it is the one that will break and it is not very expensive. Then I used a piston segment compressor rigidified with 2 hose clamp at each end to guide the bush inside the subframe. This was not enough and I needed to use thin metal piece against the subframe to prevent the bush from bulging. Without the metal piece I still managed to break one of my 2 lower bush With this method I managed to press it in intact ( at least not broken, i still needed to grind both of them just a bit). Good luck if you attempt this one but I would advise not to

What does it sound like when this engine mount has gone, I’ve got movement in mine, not sure if it is this that is making the knocking noise when I go over bumps but whenever I do it knocks…

THanks a lot, I'm going to conduct the same repair in the near future. BTW, the trashing sound at 6:02 reminds me of the ČD class 749 "Bardotka" locomotive gaining speed :).

@@aqib2000 I get your point about drawing the line etc. but garages and the people who work in them, in my experience.. can't be trusted, for instance the clutch on my car was replaced near 18 months ago and ever since the clutch pedal wasn't the same. I know for a fact they haven't bothered refilling the hydraulic fluid running between the slave cylinder and the master cylider at the pedal end, so of course it's had air in between in the meantime then the master cylider has broken with the heat from friction with it being dry, you know what they say, if you want something doing properly, do it yourself!

could you do the same if you didn't take it off the car by putting the Jack under the car and pushing it up with the Jack

Yea.. I bet that Bush just pushed in like that! These are a sod to push in without the correct Laser line tool kit. When the Bush hits the cut out it will jam or fracture.. That Bush now needs to be replaced (again). Better to try and blank the cut out and use a piston ring compressor. Still very time consuming and fiddly. I can't see how the car jack would allow you access to manipulate the Bush properly? Did you loc tite all those bolts afterwards? Or replace them (as per vag)?

This guy here did it properly. As you can see there, even with the proper tools it is challenging to fit them both safely. Beware! kzread.info/dash/bejne/Ym2GzcqqY9DNp5M.html
