Hydraulic Engine Mount

[shanedavison28]

Took the clio dci to get suspension looked at and was told it was the hydraulic engine mount.

Need to get the part myself and then he wil replace it.

Anyone know where I can get one? Cant find it for the life of me

No hydralic engine mounts on a dci 100 mate. They are ali and rubber mounts

Oh, that's defo what he said we needed.

Do any of the dci's have them?

 

[shanedavison28]

Can you link me to the correct part fairly cheap please?

Sounds like you need to take it to someone with a brain!

Getting the car serviced on weds and getting the new egr valve installed.

Will ask them to have a look.

This is with kwik fit.

There's the problem. DO NOT! use them. Go somewhere else before they replace parts that don't need replacing.

It wasn't Kwik Fit that said about the hydraulic engine mount.

Kwik fit is the garage I am taking it to for the service and egr valve.

 

[Dr HMS Derv Destroyer]

Why does it need a new EGR valve? Have you cleaned it out?

 

[Jay_G]

Don't take it kwik fit mate. Find another reputable garage that is local, easy enough to find

 

[Mar172]

Kwik fit will rip you off if not careful they try and flog u stuff you don't need

 

[shanedavison28]

Why does it need a new EGR valve? Have you cleaned it out?

Cleaned it out few months back but it's just all clogged again so I have ordered a new one.

 

[shanedavison28]

I just want to get my car running properly at a half decent garage. That includes having a service, getting new EGR valve fitted and sorting out the suspension.

Where shall I take it?

 

[Dr HMS Derv Destroyer]

Ah right, keep the new one clean aswell then!.
They do clog up but a good blast once and a while will clear the crap out.

As for the engine mount, how many miles have you done total?

Does this place look ok? They seem to have good reviews and they look like they would be able to sort all my issues?

Take it to one of the traders on here, all of them know the lot and wont rip you off with unneeded stuff. And they will tel you what really needs doing

I will give meca car services a ring tomoro. They have very good reviews.

There is defo something wrong with the suspension as when you hit a bump for example it feels like the shock is coming up through the car. I thought it would have been the shocks but appaerntly its not and its the hydraulic engine mount

 

[JackJack]

No personal experience with meca but always heard good things about them. Or Carlton in Exmouth are good.

You have some great specialists in your area, please don't take it to some chump.

I'm not really bothered who you take it to, i'm just trying to help.

Take it to one of your local garages, get them to fit that Hydraulic engine mount......

Oh, and good luck.

Im not ignoring the advice at all.

I have been advised not to go to Kwik Fit - therefore I'm not going Kwik Fit.

I have also been advised to find a reputable garage - found one.

Exmouth is like an extra 20 mins from the Meca place, and its lady owned apparently. Enough said....
