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.

You mean rebuild your own mounts? Mine were trashed. $400+change well spent... TC
There is some info online if you google, but nothing that that would work with porsche motor mounts as they seem to be sealed. I'd be interested to know what you come up with Imo000.
There is a vendor here that "rebuilds" them by injecting urethane, just need to know if I need to cut the top cap off too. I think I do but if anyone has some more info, feel free to share.
You do need to cut the tops, that's where you pour in the Urethane. Also get some kind of power tool to vibrate it against the housing after its been poured to make sure you don't have air pockets.
It's not quite as simple as cutting open the OEM mount top caps and filling them. Because the mounts sag over time, I have jigs that the upgraded mounts are bolted into while the urethane cures, so that the original mount dimensions are restored, and the studs get re-centered in the mount body. Prior to pouring, the urethane also needs to be degassed in a vacuum chamber and cured in a pressure chamber, to ensure no air bubbles are present. The urethane is also injected into the bottom cavity to fill the remaining empty voids - this is actually the crucial part, as it prevents the mount from sagging.

how much is yours with core exchange?
I didn't mean for this to turn into an advertisement for my product - I was just adding some insight into the process involved. You can click on the link in my signature (above post) for more information, but I won't discuss specifics on another member's thread.
FWIW, I'm probably one of the first users of FF engine mounts and they're still great as usual after all this time. But now you get to choose some cool colors to match your intake hose or the red/orange/black cap mod. Lol.
I forgot to mention that they will be compressed to go a little passed the factory "sagging" point and onlybthen with the urathane be injected. Was going to inject the utathane at the top and bottom. Sorry I forgot to mention that but I really do appreciate the pointers. Every little bit of info helps.
