I can't see a decent image in the rear view mirror beacuse tha car is vibrating so much. If i were to have a passenger in the car I would have to shout at them, i'm so upset with the car as I was looking forward to taking it out for a spin with the different engine and now I don't want to go anywhere near it.

Did they fit all 4 poly mounts or just the side inserts? If they fitted a Poly rear mount swap that back and it'll be much more bearable.

hope its just the mounts and nowt to do with the new block :dontknow:
Now you've got him worried! 8O I'm sure it'll be the mounts, i remember when I first started mine after fitting them, the best way to describe it is 'agricultural'!

The drivers side one is a biatch to replace with the engine in the car, but if they have only used the poly inserts then you may be able to take the bolt out and jack the engine up or down to pop them out. The gearbox one on the passenger side is straight forward.
The front one is just a snubber and is fine in poly, it just limits engine movement and is not load bearing, well it shouldn't be if the engine/box is sitting correctly in the other three mounts.

I really can't believe how bad it is with the poly mounts
they are not bad at all its just they are not really designed for a road car, i had some on my track day mk1 and they were fantastic, hardly any vibration, that i could tell cos suspension was rock hard

you could always look into golf citi ones from south africa, cars had aircon and are slightly uprated and not comptetion only

Chris from what the lads are saying I'd leave it… if it's doing what it supposed to be doing all is well…
I think I will just leave it, I am glad I saw this thread as I was fitting it tomorrow
