T5 - Replacing 'that' Engine Mount (gearbox one)

Welton · Sep 3rd, 2020, 15:00

I've replaced the cambelt-end engine mount and the rear lower stabilser mount but there's an awkward one on the gearbox where you need to remove the battery and air box/ecu etc.

Has anyone had this mount replaced and can comment on doing the job DIY?

Seems DIYable to me:

This guy shows a T5 clutch change, I think 6:00 min onwards is relevant.

Cheers for that, looks good but will study further.

I can see 'that' plastic tee on the coolant hose too!

Looks like the gearbox hangs from the mount.
