Yea thats true i didnt realize that!

That thing is that i fited one in mi 1.8T vag and its really works.

Now please dance whit me,if could be with the hand on the mouse and looking at the keyboard

yeah i have done new motor mounts on all my cars... makes it feel a lot different (in a good way) most of them were just replacing the soft rubber with a harder urethane... shifts are crisper and you "fell" the car more... this would def be something nice and not that expensive for the n54

I believe my Volvo S-60 R had one of those as a TOP motor mount.

You right but,stock cars always look for the comfort,so always can replace some for some more harder-racing,call it what you want ...fact: yes we can!

Ugh...that top motor mount wears out SO quickly. A Urathan bushing was one of my first mods when I had my S70 T5 (same engine/mount layout).

I actually understand what you're asking for and trying to say because I owned a MKV GLI.

The reason for the dogbone mount was to prevent wheel hop in a front wheel drive car, but we don't have an issue with this since our cars are RWD.

This is true. You beat me to it.
Maybe if the OP asked about engine mounts or tranny mounts then that's a different story, but we have no dogbone mounts.
