I did this on my 2005.5 MKV Jetta a few years ago. I was able to get the upper and lower in by using a piston ring compressor and starting both from the bottom. The top one was tough cause once it gets in and has to go past the point where the dogbone is it wants to buldge out into that area. I used a pry bar through the hole that the dog bone goes through in-order to push guide the mount in as I pressed it up. Instead of using a press I had the car leveled as best as I could on 4 stands and used a driver like you did and my floor jack to press it up into the subframe. The bottom one was much easier. I like the PVC pipe tool though vs the piston ring compressor. And as far as getting them out goes, all you need to do is score the plastic then hammer a chisel into the score, It will break along your score mark, then you can get a pry bar behind the cracked portion to slide one end of the butt joint you just created over the top of the other plastic thats resting flush against the housing. The mount will fall out then.
I wonder how many people got the Megadeth reference? Well done, it was even during Peace Sells not too far from where Dave gives the line. Massive help, thank you!
You gave me a great idea. Instead of using a coupling, I ended up using a tbolt hose clamp, which I tightened down quite a lot before I began pressing the bushings in. These hose clamps are robust enough to hold the bushings in shape.
Not quite sure exactly what you’re saying, but I would imagine that because I’m not thinking clearly at the moment or something. I’m glad it worked out for you and I’m glad I gave you a good idea.!!!
@@sharpcarco you used a PVC coupling to keep the bushings from deforming while you pressed them in. I replaced that coupling with the tbolt hose clamp, which required only tightening it. Whereas you had to hone out the coupling??
Thank you for making this video. The hardest part was stuffing the U section into the center. I cut the bottom out with my dremel in 3 sections then cut a piece of the plastic and trimmed the rubber to make a shim for the u section towards engine. Then tapped that in and cut the bottom of one of my old town car suspension airbag cups and used that with a jack to get the bottom mount in under the car while it was bolted to the top mount to hold it.. I did not replace the top mount yet because the new dogbone and bottom mount were enough to stabilize the motor 75% for my trip out of town. I thought this was my shaking steering wheel issue, but I think it is a bent rim since the right side of the car is vibrating when lifted off the ground and my wheel has a nice little flat spot in it. I almost got into cutting them all out, so thanks again for explaining this. I also thought I had a extra motor mount, but I am learning alot about the MK7 and up VWs this year. I spent a long time on the lower mount but now I have my home made tool for the bottom portion, I will deal with the top one when I am ready to suffer and strategize again...
i loled at this haha. changed mine in like 20 mins. took the old out with a flat screw driver and a hammer, just demaged it enough to bend it and pulled right out. put some wd 40 on a new one and gently taped it right back in there. was a bit pain to center it in, but took only mins.
Well you certainly can’t please all the people all the time and if I showed people to do it that way they would call me a hack. So I showed Folks how to do it a way that it will certainly work every time without damaging the new component. Kudos to you you did a much better job than me. Very happy that you found away to do it much simpler my way is not always the best way but that’s why my channel is called The Clay Way
Using the info from your video and these comments, I was able to get this done with both a C - clamp and a pair of hose clamps. I just ratcheted the hose clamp around the lubed up mount really tight and cranked down. The clamp slid off as the mount went into the subframe. oh, i think i also used some heat to soften the rubber so i could tighten the hose clamps even more
I've been looking for a method to use on my 2011 golf, thanks for the idea! I'll probably combine this with heating up the subframe for a bit of thermal expansion because i don't have a press to use
I pressed one up in with a floor jack and it got destroyed and crooked and lasted a couple days. So I bought another set from parts geek and removed the sub frame and they easily tapped in with a mallet. I almost could have done it with my hands. I measured the set I tried to put in and it was a .045 interference fit. Almost as if your set and my first set were wrong. It doesn’t make sense that they would do that type of fit from the factory. Anyway so far the parts geek one is working perfectly
I suppose it could’ve been. But it would also mean that a lot of other peoples were wrong as well. I don’t think it’s supposed to fit in there that easy I mean, how would it work if it’s in there super easy, I just don’t understand that but OK
The mistake you did fox. Never grind any material on them mounts why? When you rev over 3thousand rpm steering play a bit. All you can do is heat that subframe over air gun over 500 degrees. It will expand by 2 to 3 mm then use a press and cool it down with water. It contracts back to original diameter. I broke a lot of them on my passat cc, its a bad design
So I am going task a stupid question or 2. Why can you not use a band style oil filter wrench and a floor jack with a piece of pipe on it pushing on a seal installer like you had?
I don’t think that’s a stupid question at all. It might work but the amount of force that needs to be used to push in The new mont is a lot. But I do think the floor Jack is a possibility. Let us know if that works sounds like my video got you thinking so that is really awesome
@@sharpcarco floor jack pushes right in... Simple 30 min job. A piece of wood on your jack jack up trans a very little bit so you have tension taken away. Insert new mount with floor jack I cut a piece of metal the same as the new mount... Cake
@@kaosfiles007 got to watch a video instead of using a press use a floor jack underneath the car insert mount put a piece of wood on your floor jack and jack it into place
@@PeterFeltersnatch852 been looking for a video. I really want the hpa puck. But at 200,000 ill take what i can obtain. Did you freeze them? Or soap them up?
Hello, is there some method to do this without taking the frame out? Can i press it from under into the frame, like your method in the other way? Somewone who did it or know how? Nice video, if there is no other way i will do it like this.. kind regards Sven
@@sharpcarco yes indeed but that is to expensive, if i take a metal pipe that fits so it wont become a egg, and a inner pipe to press from under, it will not work ?
Hi is there 2 mounts that go in the sleeve in the cradle? Like two mounts that go on top of each other or it it just one mount I’m doing this on my car tomorrow and don’t want to have it setting on the lift cus I only bought one
If you have a lift lowering the crossmember is not that hard. I did this video for people at home doing it in their driveway. And because it was a niche way of doing it. I wanted to create a simple way you could insert The mount without special tools. Or I should say something that you can’t get locally. Yes I do believe there is two. But gosh for the life of me I can’t remember why did not change the other one. Only thing I remember about making this video was making an insert and going to Home Depot and getting the pipe and pushing the new sleeve in squarely. I’m sure after I leave you this message I will think of something that I can’t remember right now off the top my head but I get so many questions sometimes I forget about them if I don’t answer them right away.
I don’t know what you’re saying because at one point you said you could never do it then at the next thing you said it can be done However, that’s why I built the tool in the video to show you how to do it

man, I've replaced all my engine and trans mounts except for these two...I'm dreading it. They are not bad (yet), I might just put a poweflex stiffening polyurethane insert to keep them from coming apart from driving flex.
@@briansmith9258 Those bushings are extremely hard to get in, so I opted for a Powerflex polyurethane track insert (purple colored). I have an A3 2.0T (not a TDI). Powerflex also has a TDI polyurethane insert (red colored)-it’s ~$35.00. If your bushings aren’t totally destroyed, the. I would look into an insert. It also helps how the engine/ trans responds and the car will feel more solid driving. Just my thoughts on it.
@@joshuam7552 I have that worked for a few days then started vibrate in the game. I’m hoping the two new mounts plus the insert will do. I think my dmf is going out as well so that makes it worst.
Hello , i have VW Touran 2003 2.0 Diesel..When i let gas pedal i hear weird noise in engine and when i go in reverse i hear that too.. what problem it can be? Thank you and sorry for bad English haha
the screw hole for the bolt on the bottom of my 2007 mk5 gti crack in half dropping the dog bone mount out of my car while driving. How do i fix a new whole on the bottom of the motor to screw in a new dog bone mount?
Thanks for the video as someone who likes Volkswagen but the mechanics dont like them and its hard to find a reasonable mechanic and then u run into crab like this hey do you have any videos on the cv axles is there a special tool for the 2.5s they're is hardly any space to get tools in there
It was extremely thin nylon to begin with and it wasn’t intended to be sanded down plus you would’ve had to keep it round and that would’ve proved rather difficult I think my solution actually works very well and this is one of my favorite videos because this was simple and cheap for the next person to do if I recommended changing the engineering of something people would not think very much of me even though your idea may be a possibility. I don’t personally recommend it thank you so much for the inspiration though God bless and have a great day
Well I very much appreciate that but I pretty much just run a RUclips channel I don’t really do repairs for the public unless there’s something that most shops can’t handle thank you very very much though and welcome to the channel we’re very happy to have you.
Good morning I do believe it is the same procedure if the mount looks the same. It most definitely should be. The way that I show you do this in the video I believe you could do it while it was inside the car. But I already had mine out

Thanks for showing your process. You got it in, and that is all that matters!
Thank you for detailed explanation, extremely helpful, covers up everything you need to know. Great video
You’re very welcome Moe Thank you for the compliment and welcome to the Channell we’re very happy to have you
I was shaving those bushings to 3/4 way pior to press...your way is dam good :)
I've been looking for a method to use on my 2011 golf, thanks for the idea! I'll probably combine this with heating up the subframe for a bit of thermal expansion because i don't have a press to use
I truly believe i can extract it with my tools for building work, and then put new on in with same tools.

I also went through this pain in the ass. I think the next time I'll just buy a new car!
How to say if the subframe motor mounts are bad.??... Does car wobble while accelerating in gear?
I got a knock on decel, push clutch in and it was gone, so it wasn't suspension
The mistake you did fox.

Freezing it is the way yes :)
