Seademon 0 Posted December 20, 2005 Report Share Posted December 20, 2005 The Phirm told me that the front engine mount is filled with hydraulic fluid when they changed mine to a vibra technics mount so it could be leaking Link to post Share on other sites
SankysVR6 1 Posted December 20, 2005 Report Share Posted December 20, 2005 Well i just changed mine to a new OEM one and i didn't see any signs of oil leak on the old one or the new one.The top one is a rubber mount with loads of holes all around it and is about 90mm in length when new. The old that i took out was about 70mm in length. Link to post Share on other sites

mk3anni 0 Posted December 20, 2005 Report Share Posted December 20, 2005 Front and rear are filled with hydrolic (SP) fluid and the gearbox mount is just a lump of rubber on a lump of metal Link to post Share on other sites
