I have a 2.2 DTi Opel Zafira and when I changed the engine mounts, the noise from the engine lowered quite drastically. Before the change, it was quite noisy inside the cabin and we had to speak a bit louder with each other inside. Now the car seems to be quite a different car. My wife loved it. (And I did not knew how it was before as we bought the car second hand and could not understand it if would be normal on this model to be that noisy in the inside...) Some things we only find when we make those little tiny changes... Greetings from Portugal.

You dont need to support the engine? just support the side of the car so you can work under it? or do i need to support the engine with something while its removed?
Yeah you do need to support the engine. The guy had the his jack with a rubber block under the sump (so supporting the engine), it's why near the end he had to jack it up a bit to line up the bolt. Trust me you need to support the engine, which is easily done with a jack (and rubber block) under the sump.
@@MeFixingEverything You were supporting the engine because you'd jacked it up under the sump. It's why you had to jack it up to line up the bolt, nice video.

What are bolt torque settings
Were there any symptoms?
Small shake from time to time
Nothing serious.

No need to support the engine.
Edit : yes you need a jack underneath.
