well i took advantage of the lovely weather :lol: after work to replace my top engine mounting, it wasnt a very nice job to do, even if you jack up then engine when you remove the mounting the engine just falls back and rest's on the bulkhead making it immpossible to get back on, you also have to remove the high pressure power steering hose from the pump as it gets right in the way of one of the bolts, i bought the mounting with a new bush attatched as i did want to have to remove the mount then take it to work to press out the bush
it worked out about £30 more but it was worth it
it makes a hell of a lot of difference especially if your getting that nasty vibration at 2200rpm

oh yeah, your probably guessing what i fooked up, i snapped off one of the 8mm allen bolts overtightening it :cheesy:
