Top Gearbox Mount?

[Rob]

Price on these??

Only available from Renault?

Part number?

 

[DannyR]

Is that the problem mate? I thought the vibration was coming from drivers side?

 

[Chrisjk]

NWperformance sell them, about £15 i think.

 

[Rob]

Lovely jubbly Chris, cheers.

Adam, I think I can just feel it coming through the accel pedal, so it feels like drivers side.

I need to take the battery out and check over the w.e, as aparently, its pretty obvious if they are shagged.

 

[AlexG]

Mine wasnt obvious.

The bolt which goes through it shears off within the mount.

Mine looked fine but it wasnt until i took it all apart i realised it was knackered.

 

[Rob]

Ok cheers, well I'll take it apart this w.e and see what happens.

Any reason the KTEC uprated item is like 6x the price of a normal one?

Any reason the KTEC uprated item is like 6x the price of a normal one?

because it wont be fucked within 3 months like the stock item :rasp:

 

[Rob]

But unless it performs perfectly for 18months or more, surely its easier to just bung the standard item on? lol!

Is it an easy easy job Danny? Gearbox jacked up or something, then take mount off, put new one on?

 

[AlexG]

I never supported anything. There is a lower gearbox mount a bit below it which you can see from the wheel arch. That bolts the gearbox to subframe iirc.

 

[Rob]

So just a straight change over? Sweet!!!
