Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

Or should it be fitted next to the bottom very large washer (close to my thumb in photo) and the hex nut should tighten directly to the car chassis?

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi I have just received the RS Engine mounts for my C2. I have never tried fitting these before but have watched the usual YouTube videos but all of them seem to miss out the location of the bottom washer as shown in the photo below. Should the washer be at the very bottom of the bolt and fit between the car and the hex nut? Or should it be fitted next to the bottom very large washer (close to my thumb in photo) and the hex nut should tighten directly to the car chassis? Hope that explains clearly what I'm confused about any advice gratefully received.

POST 2Original post

I used this diagram to help work out what went where when doing mine....

POST 3Original post

The lower washer 7D should go where your thumb (ie is above the chassis), only the flanged nut goes below it as per the diagram posted above.

Thanks guys that makes sense I can crack on with the change now.

POST 5Original post

Just remember be really careful torq the smaller bolts, as they are fragile and I snapped one off and it took evenings of drilling etc.

POST 6 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi torque for the small bolts is 23ft/lb or 30nM so I'm not going to go any further than that

POST 7Original post

Let us (me!) know what you think of the ride after you're finished. I am thinking of fitting some.

POST 8 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Sure will do...not sure how much driving I will be doing in it over the next few weeks
