Afternoon all
2004 1.4 TDI 75
When pulling off and on acceleration/deceleration I'm getting a rocking feeling through the car. It’s not really bad but is annoying me and I like to have the car maintained to a good standard. From researching previous threads it appears this could be related to the dogbone gearbox mount showing signs of wear, its done 107k miles.
I've got a few questions if anyone can help:
1. Does this item need to be removed in order to change the gearbox oil. I intend to change the gearbox oil at the next service so it would work out well if this is the case.
2. Is changing the mount a DIY job?
3. What is the best place to source this item, is it a dealer only part?
4. Is there an alternative to using an A2 part? I've read in a very old post that the one for the Polo 9N fits with a bit of alteration.
I'll be very grateful if anyone can offer any advice with this.
Thanks Steve
