Do you really need to remove the engine mounts to change the cambelt?

nothing to see here.

From memory, one of the engine block-to-engine mount bolts is inside the run of the cambelt. So, yes, you do.

As Muttley said the mount runs inside the belt path so will need removing.

The part number for the Mount is 1J0199262 this is followed by 2 letters depending on the engine type.

You will need a couple each of bolts N90596906 and N10209605

They are one time use stretch bolts and for something that holds the engine in place you don't want to risk re-using for the sake of a few quid.

Many places do the mounts, ECP, GSF, TCP, Autodoc and loads more. Price around the 35-50 mark.
