Had mine in the garage yesterday having the belts, water pump, filters & oil changed. A few other things were found while he was on:
Bottom pulley (done), front drop link (ordered), flexi pipe in exhaust (ordered), 2 x CV joints req. to sort EBS prob & a new rear engine mount req.
Still looking at CV joints on internet, but can someone tell me what a rear engine mount looks like? There's all kinds on ebay & i don't want to end up ordering the wrong one (total novice )

Yours has more torques
Tell me puggy, as I don't think people believe me, when you blip the throttle now I bet your engine doesn't move more than about 5mm but with a worn mount it would have lurched forward by at least 40mm.

Correct welly !! especially when cold , start up and during tickover you could now
and again feel the whole car lurch , and after a run when you switched off you could
feel the engine lurch again . When i watched this with the bonnet open i would say on occasion
it moved more than 40mm also at say 70/80 on a motorway you could feel it when you
took your foot off . All this has now gone
It always bothered me about how much the engine was pulling at all pipes and cables when it was moving about so much and yes I used to feel the engine when lifting off - a kinda 'delay'.
