    Rear engine mount modification from PowerFlex

    http://www.drive2.ru/cars/citroen/ds...53137713/#post

    Gearbox selector now works much better, engine is not dangling and the mout will not tear any more.

      Hi,

      can the installation be done without any special tools? I have access to a hydraulic lift at my work so getting under the car is no problem.

        Yes, only undo two bolts!
        Was also looking for this modification, but I'm gonna install something different

                  Hot glue does just as good of job at a fraction of the cost.

                    Hi Jamie
                    Is there an issue here that I'm not aware of ?

                      There's no problem with these mountings as such, just that they allow a little too much movement. Stiffening them up just makes the gear changes pleasing.

                        Cheers Jamie, did you use the old bostik glue gun on yours ?

                          Hey guys,

                          I just installed this part.

                          When the car is idle I can feel a lot more vibration from the engine. When I'm running it goes back to stock specs.
                          This vibration as the car is idle is what is bothering me, is that normal? Or that happens only in the beginning as the rubber settles in?

                          Thanks!

                            Same here... whole car is vibrating if I pull or reverse slowly with torque. It's power mate :P
