Hey guys wondering where I can buy these? My engine mounts are shot and need to get them soon. I found them for £160 but the website won't let me register to order them which is crap.

Any info would be appreciated :)

THS FR3 engine mounts will make your car vibrate like hell, i had them fitted to my PD170

they are now on my LCR even on petrol they vibrate

so if you like your comforts don't get them lol

Just don't want to fit standards and they pack in again in like 10-20,000 miles. The dog bone has added a lot of vibration but just got to live with it.

Am getting a knock over bumps, somtimes changing gear mainly changing to 4th 5th nd 6th then accelaring and when coming off the accelarator if that makes sense. Could that be engine mounts?

What dog bone mount have you gone for standard or uprated?

or an insert?

Possibly too much engine movement. The standard engine mounts are guff!!

Polybush but not sure which 1 possibly powerflex?!

Andy, I’ve not had mine fitted yet (I know, I’m crap) I thought the vibration was not that bad?

Just checked and I'm running a THS FR3 dog bone, had completely forgot I fitted it. Makes the car very juddery on clutch bite but I can't fully judge until I get the rest of my mounts done. If anyone has any second hand give me a shout :)

hi gents, i have a wee knocking noise under engine braking, have been putting up with it for a while but its sounding worse by the day! whats the verdict on the THSFR3-MK5CMP mounts? is the vibration from the engine really that bad? Someone here has mentioned the vibrations are bad on their TDI but mines a mk2 facelift cupra and its low mileage so i wouldnt expect any vibration issues.

And has anyone gone for the complete system including torque mount and gearbox mount or just the engine mounts only?

Got THS upper and the Revo lower insert installed last night. Initial impression is very good vibrations hardly noticeable, excellent wee mod'
