VW Golf GTI / Jetta MK5 MK6 2.0 TSI Polyurethane Dog Bone Engine Mount Insert Kit - Red 80A

Product Overview

This red polyurethane insert kit is designed to fill the voids in the lower dog bone (pendulum) engine mount on Volkswagen Golf, GTI and Jetta MK5 and MK6 models with the 2.0 TSI engine. The dog bone mount controls fore-and-aft rocking of the engine and gearbox, and the factory rubber can allow noticeable movement under hard acceleration, braking and gear changes. Filling the mount with a firmer material is a popular, low-cost way to tighten up drivetrain response.

Key Features and Benefits

• 80A durometer polyurethane, firmer than typical factory rubber
• Helps reduce engine and gearbox movement during launches and shifts
• Can make gear changes feel more precise and reduce wheel hop
• Insert-style design intended to work with the existing mount housing
• Red finish for easy identification in the engine bay

Vehicle Compatibility

The supplier lists this kit for the Volkswagen Golf, GTI and Jetta MK5 and MK6 with the 2.0 TSI engine. The listing gives several overlapping year ranges, so please confirm your vehicle details before ordering. Fitment is supplier-stated and has not been independently verified.

Installation and Usage

The lower dog bone mount is usually removed from underneath the vehicle, the inserts fitted into the mount voids, and the mount refitted and torqued to the manufacturer specification. Support the engine and gearbox safely while the mount is out. Firmer mounts transmit more vibration into the cabin, particularly at idle, which is normal for this type of upgrade. If you are not confident working on engine mounts, have the kit fitted by a qualified mechanic.
