in the last month or so the car has developed a slight vibration, nothing too serious but there is some noticable transmission movement when you change gear.

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

Evening all, just a quick note to ask if anyone has any experience re suspect transmission/engine mounts and possible replacement? Car is a 98 C2 manual with 123K miles. in the last month or so the car has developed a slight vibration, nothing too serious but there is some noticable transmission movement when you change gear. Not 100% sure if it could be the engine mounts, have have a look round the web and possibly the transmission mount? Looks like there is only one mount and its press fitted into the gearbox housing....anyone had any experience of replacing?? Thx Andy

POST 2Original post

I thought the engine mountings were available seperatly. I'm on my phone now but ill post a link when I get to work in an hour. Try this link.

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi Chris, thanks, the info I could found pointed more to the transmission mount and that this was press fitted into the transmission casing... Bst Andy

http://www.renntech.org/forums/topic/28781-diy-for-transmission-mount-rr/ Never heard of anyone here attempting it but seen quite a few posts on the American forums. Best of luck.

POST 5Original post

Pelican Parts sell the Wevo mount mentioned in that thread.

POST 6 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks for the link, looks like a pain to say the least, not sure I want to ask my OPC how much to undertake! do you think this would be something an Indy would consider/have any experience of? Bst Andy

POST 7Original post

Not sure myself if its really necessary to drop the transmission, failing that I would say any Indy should be competent (frightening thought). Any pics of yours?.
